PostGIS adds support for geographic objects to the PostgreSQL
|
|
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).
|
|
|
|
To disable raster support and eliminate the gdal dependency,
|
|
set RASTER=no. If you choose this path, be aware that
|
|
postgis will still need the two dependencies that gdal
|
|
relies on, proj and geos.
|
|
|
|
To disable the GTK-based graphical interface for shp2pgsql,
|
|
set GUI=no.
|
|
|
|
This SlackBuild does not build the PostGIS JDBC driver since
|
|
the build requires Apache Maven to download dependencies at
|
|
build time. The optional dependencies needed to build the
|
|
driver are: apache-ant, apache-maven, and postgres-jdbc.
