Title: [GENERAL] Not Geography

I have PostgreSQL, c/w the geometry attachment, installed on Win XP. I need to get started using it. I am best able to do that by example, however a simple (geometry for dummies) description or a tool would also help.

 

I am on the Postgis list but everyone there seems to be so geographically oriented that I wanted to query a larger audience.

Bob,

I don't quite understand your question.  Are you not sure how to install PostGIS, how to integrate it in your existing datbase, or once you install how to get started using it?  How to do it depends on the operating system you are using.  Once you have it installed you may want to join the Postgis newsgroup for further help

Hope that helps,
