my guess is you are not "feeding" the geometry field with the correct data the "natural" container for raw (default) lat lon is a geography field : *geography()* if instead you want to use a *geometry()*, you need to transform the original data from EPSG:4326 to another coordinates system
I use such fields in my app: *Field('g','geometry('',2154,2)',required=True)* this one receives transformed lat, lon from EPSG:4326 to EPSG:2154 you can easily manage your transforms with the python* pyproj* module -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
