[postgis-users] Visualize POLYGONs
Hi All, I have some polygons in a table that I need to see visually to see if they intersect at some points and to double check my calculations. Wondering if there is a good tool that can show me these polygons? They are not associated with any geographic lat long coordinates and hence no SRID etc, just plain geometry. Any ideas what would be a good tool that can read these polygons from postgis and show me the outputs? I could write a script if need be. But maybe you guys have a simpler tool or plugin? :) Cheers, Ed ___ postgis-users mailing list postgis-users@postgis.refractions.net http://postgis.refractions.net/mailman/listinfo/postgis-users

Just to add, I forgot to mention that the polygon is made up 3D points! :) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In 3D, maybe a KML export and a Google Earth could visualize them ?

Re: [postgis-users] Visualize POLYGONs
Hi Nicolas, Only problem being that these x,y,z coordinates don't represent lat long and elevation values, They are just plain old floats. Don't think Google Earth will be able to show them and I don't want to make some weird transformations on the coordinates to make it work on google. Are there no other 3D tools?

Yes, sorry, read too fast.
