Hi, Me and others are planning to move PG to ISO19100 compliance. ISO19100 is the future standard that is describing GIS systems. If you visit FMaps.sourceforge.net and go in the CVS you will see in the directory /src/geoobj/ procedures to add geographic data types to PG. These procedures need to be rewritten as they are not ISO19100 compliant. But all the concepts are there and working. The work doesn't stop here and include metadata schema, feature schema, but a the moment the crunch is creating a geographic object type in PG and rendering it. Cheers.

As a newbie approaching this topic, I would really appreciate hearing from anyone who has (off-list, unless you think it is of general interest). TIA, Cheers, Laurel [EMAIL PROTECTED]
