Geography seemed right when I started the project.

I've written a script to migrate location data from MySQL to PostGIS.
Each region contains 5-20 locations. I would like my script to create a simple
polygon for each region that encompasses its locations (lat/lng points). I say

So, it appears there's some weird corruption going on... Still, not sure what

If I try to insert a row containing particular coordinate, the query fails and
the DB connection is lost. (By comparison, hundreds of inserts of other
coordinates work fine.) Here's a straight copy-and-paste comparison from psql:

Since building the Tiger Geocoder database from the source data is so
time-consuming, I'm trying to capture the result (the ~90GB spatially aware
database) so that I can simply restore, in case I need to rebuild the server.
Should be simple, but every time I pg_dump and attempt to pg_restore, I
Just wondering what I can do to squeeze out more performance of my database
application? Here's my configuration:
- Mac mini server
- Core i7 quad-core at 2GHz
- 16GB memory
- Dedicated fast SSD (two SSDs in the server)
- Mac OS X 10.7.2 (*not* using OS X Server)
- PostgreSQL 9.05
- PostGIS 1.5.3

I had the Tiger Geocoder 2010 working great on one machine. I dumped the
database to a file, and then restored it to a fresh Postgresql90 + PostGIS
1.5.3 (a la Macports)… via psql -U postgres -q -d gc4 -f tiger_dump.sql
But there were a few notices/errors on the import:

This:
SELECT loader_generate_script(ARRAY['DC','RI'], 'windows');
…returns a shell script that will wget the Tiger data for the states of DC and
Rhode Island. And, aside from a couple small bugs, works very well. I was

Having imported the Edges shape files, I'm able to get quickly find the closest
street to a given latlng point (reverse-geocode). From this row, I get the
street name and house number ranges, and state (FIPS code) -- but not the city
name. Any suggestions on the best way to find the town/city?
Sorry, I wrote too soon. This function appears to be for forward-geocoding
(address -> latlng) not reverse.

So I'm using PostGIS 1.5.3, and the docs
(http://postgis.refractions.net/docs/ST_Line_Locate_Point.html) say that
multilinestrings are supported, so…. ???
On 2011-10
In PostGIS parlance, given a lat/lng point... where -- in terms of percentage
or decimal -- does it lie along on a row's multilinestring?
The thing is, the multilinestring is just a single line string. But I suppose
there are cases where there are more than one segment to the street… In any
