"The explosive growth of the GeoWeb and geographic information has made GIS powerful media for the general public to communicate, but perhaps more importantly, GIS have also become media for constructive dialogs and interactions about social issues." - Sui & Goodchild

Créer une géotable :
CREATE TABLE test (id serial PRIMARY KEY, genre text); SELECT AddGeometryColumn( 'test', 'the_geom', -1, 'GEOMETRY', 2 );
Alimenter la table avec quelques géométries en dur et pas vraiment “spatiales” (SRS = -1 !!):
INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 3, 'batiment1', ST_GeometryFromText( 'POLYGON((10 10,40 20,35 8,12 4,10 10))', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 4, 'batiment2', ST_GeometryFromText( 'POLYGON((10 40,20 30,30 40,40 35,50 60,35 80,20 60,10 40))', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 5, 'batiment3', ST_GeometryFromText( 'POLYGON((10 95,20 95,20 135,10 135,10 95))', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 1, 'pieton1', ST_GeometryFromText( 'POINT(10 70)', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 2, 'pieton2', ST_GeometryFromText( 'POINT(30 30)', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 6, 'pieton3', ST_GeometryFromText( 'POINT(35 70)', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 7, 'pieton4', ST_GeometryFromText( 'POINT(35 60)', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 8, 'bordureRoute1', ST_GeometryFromText( 'LINESTRING(1 85,50 85)', -1 ) ); INSERT INTO test VALUES ( 9, 'bordureRoute2', ST_GeometryFromText( 'LINESTRING(1 92,50 92)', -1 ) );
