Hi folks Newbie to postgres and database admin generally, so be gentle.
I'm trying to set-up a postgres mapserver for Ordnance Survey Mastermap. So far I have installed postgreSQL 8..4 and PostGIS. I have imported a GML file into a postgres database, created using postgis_template, using ogr2ogr. The import was successful, and creates 8 tables. I will not list them all here. But there seem to be two tables associated with what are the map labels in OS Mastermap. The tables are named "cartographicsymbol" and "cartographictext". I note that the table cartographicsymbol does contain an attribute (or column) named [orientation] , whch can be used to rotate the label to the correct orientation. Although the information is contained in the raw GML file, no such [orientation] attribute is imported for "cartographictext". I also note that in neither table is the [fid] attribute (unique identifier) imported. Does anyone have any clues about how to get over this difficulty? Many thanks Oisin
