PostGIS 1.1.5
2006/10/13
- Java:
- Removed obsolete synchronization from Jts code.
- fixed nullpointer Exception in Geometry.equals() method
- Added EJB3Spatial.odt to fulfill the GPL requirement of
distributing the "preferred form of modification"
- Added -S option for non-multi geometries to shp2pgsql
- Updated heavily outdated README files for shp2pgsql/pgsql2shp by
merging them with the manpages.
Installed docs changed a bit.
upstream changes:
- Fixed support for PostgreSQL 8.2
- Fixed bug in collect() function discarding SRID of input
- Added SRID match check in MakeBox2d and MakeBox3d
- Fixed regress tests to pass with GEOS-3.0.0
- Improved pgsql2shp run concurrency.
- [many java changes]
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
Based on package in pkgsrc-wip by mchittur@cs.nmsu.edu. Updated to
not require building in PG source dir now that postgresql81-client
installs the "server" include fies.
