Hi, Thanks Regina and Strk for your ideas. Yes, the single-sided buffers would probably solve my problem. Any predictions on why this patch will make it into the Postgis trunk? I assume it won't be possible for Postgis 1.4.0, but maybe for 1.4.1? Another requirement I have is getting full bu

2009-06-16 Thread Andreas Neumann
Hi all, I am looking for either a "parallel line" feature or "open buffers around a linestring element". The idea is to visualize a waste-water system where in large map scales the actual diameter of the waste-water pipes (canalization). The linecaps shouldn't be stroked, but the parallel offset
