./geography/postgresql81-postgis, Spatial database capabilities for PostgreSQL

[ CVSweb ] [ Homepage ] [ RSS ] [ Required by ]


Branch: CURRENT, Version: 1.3.5, Package name: postgresql81-postgis-1.3.5, Maintainer: gdt

PostGIS adds support for geographic objects to the PostgreSQL
object-relational database. In effect, PostGIS "spatially enables" the
PostgreSQL server, allowing it to be used as a backend spatial
database for geographic information systems (GIS), much like ESRI's
SDE or Oracle's Spatial extension. PostGIS follows the OpenGIS "Simple
Features Specification for SQL" and has been certified as compliant
with the "Types and Functions" profile. PostGIS/PostgreSQL includes
the following functionality:
* Simple Features as defined by the OpenGIS Consortium (OGC)
* Support for Well-Known Text and Well-Known Binary
representations of GIS objects
* Fast spatial indexing using GiST
* Geospatial analysis functions
* PostgreSQL JDBC extension objects corresponding to the
geometries
* Support for OGC access functions as defined by the Simple
Features Specification

        - A quick bug fix release, to remove crashes in cases of

          that had a large affect on Mapserver with LINE layers.
        - Enhancements and Bug Fixes
          - GBT#21: improve LRS fix to apply to more platforms
          - GBT#72: fix st_estimated_extent for better schema sensitivity
          - GBT#80: segfault on st_multi in MULTILINESTRING repaired
          - GBT#83: segfault on collecting LINESTRING repaired

PostGIS 1.3.4
2008/11/24
        - New Features
          - Add new ST_AsGeoJSON() function to allow conversion of
            geometries to GeoJSON format within the database. (Olivier Courtin)
          - Add forthcoming PostgreSQL 8.4 support
            (Paul Ramsey, Mark Cave-Ayland)
          - Improved CSS for PostGIS documentation (Dane Springmeyer)
          - Inclusion of new "postgis_comments.sql" file to enable detailed
            function comments to be installed for PostGIS functions. This
            attaches a description and associated parameter information
            to each function so that this information is available directly
            within psql/pgAdmin (Regina Obe)
        - Enhancements and Bug Fixes
          - General documentation improvements (Regina Obe, Kevin Neufield)
          - Improve PiP code by removing substantial memory leaks and adding
            multi-polygon support (Paul Ramsey)
          - Improve GiST consistent performance (Paul Ramsey)
          - GBT#20: Improved algorithm for ST_DWithin (Paul Ramsey)
          - GBT#21: locate_along_measure: wrong values, invalid data
            (Mark Cave-Ayland)
          - GBT#23: wrong proj4text in spatial_ref_sys for SRID 31300 and 31370
            (Paul Ramsey)
          - GBT#43: Heap over-read in compute_geometry_stats() (Landon Fuller)
          - GBT#44: ST_Relate(geom,geom,pattern) is case sensitive (Paul Ramsey)
          - GBT#45: bug in postgis_restore.pl - not passing options to createdb
            (Paul Ramsey)
          - GBT#58: bounding box of circular string is incorrect (Mark Leslie)
          - GBT#65: ST_AsGML kills the backend when fed a CIRCULAR STRING
            (Mark Cave-Ayland)
          - GBT#66: ST_Dump kills backend when fed CIRCULAR STRING
            (Mark Cave-Ayland)
          - GBT#68: ST_Shift_Longitude doesn't work with MULTIPOINT
            (Mark Cave-Ayland)
          - GBT#69: ST_Translate crashes when fed circular string
            (Mark Cave-Ayland)
          - GBT#70: ST_NPoints Crashes with Curves (Mark Cave-Ayland)
