PgAdmin3 LTS 1.23.0a documentation » Using pgAdmin III » previous next index pgAdmin Main Window In the main window, the structure of the databases is displayed. PgAdmin3 LTS by BigSQL. As v1.0 of pgAdmin4 was released in September of 2016, the pgAdmin Development Team decided to no longer support pgAdmin III with any more fixes. It's also easy to install stand-alone via our package manager by just typing pgc install pgadmin3.

I need to install pgAdmin3 in CentOS6 but I'm getting dependencies errors.

Part 1: Getting Started With PostGIS: An almost Idiot's Guide (PostGIS 2.2) What Is PostGIS? PostGIS is an open source, freely available, and fairly OGC compliant spatial database extender for the PostgreSQL Database Management System. In a nutshell it adds spatial functions such as distance, area, union, intersection, and specialty geometry data types to the database. PostGIS is very similar in functionality to SQL Server Spatial support, ESRI ArcSDE, Oracle Spatial, and DB2 spatial extender except it has more functionality and generally better performance than all of those (and it won't bankrupt you). The latest release version now comes packaged with the PostgreSQL DBMS installs as an optional add-on. As of this writing PostGIS 2.2.0 is the latest stable release. Noteable features in this release: • now packages along new 3D measurement functions, 3D spatial index support and 3D surface area types • seamless raster/vector analysis support including an easy to use that supports various types and can load whole folders of raster files with one commandline statement, and really jazzy image export functions to output both raster and geometries as PNG/TIFF and other raster formats.

• SQL/MM topology support: now improved using native C functions. • the graphical gui loader,which is packaged with the Windows Application Stack builder and some other desktop distros, now includes batch file uploading as well as exporting. This feature can be enabled as a plugin in pgAdmin III • Ability to install using CREATE EXTENSION postgis, ALTER EXTENSION postgis. • KNN distance functionality now works with geography and 3D geometries. You get KNN true distances (not just bounding box distances), if you are using PostgreSQL 9.5+ • It also includes as an extra: Tiger geocoder upgraded to work with Tiger 2015 data. • The very first version of PostGIS windows to include functions.

• SFCGAL now supports extension model so can be installed with: CREATE EXTENSION postgis_sfcgal; after you have installed postgis. • The very first version of PostGIS to include for parsing addresses into parts, useful for geocoding addresses. The PostGIS windows 2.2.0 bundle also includes cool PostGIS related extensions that augment your spatial enjoyment.

In the bundle you will also find: • 2.1.0 and osm2pgrouting 2.1 alpha loader - for building routing applications. • for querying remote spatial data sources. This includes curl support so you can query web services such as WFS services as well. Install puppy in virtualbox linux. • for storing LIDAR data in compress POINTPATCH and also performing various operations on it.

We will assume a windows environment for this tutorial, but most of the tutorial will apply to other supported platforms such as Linux, Unix, BSD, Mac etc. We will also be using Massachusetts/Boston data for these examples. For desktop users, the EnterpriseDB one-click installer exists as well for Mac/OSX and Linux desktops, so you should be able to follow along without too much fuss. Installing PostgreSQL with PostGIS Functionality We will not go into too much detail here since the install wizard (at least the windows one) is pretty good. Below are the basic steps. • Download the install for your specific platform from the. As of this writing the latest version is PostgreSQL 9.5.0beta1 and we will be assuming PostGIS 2.2.

The minimum support PostgreSQL for PostGIS 2.2.0 is PostgreSQL 9.1 (for windows we only build installers for 9.3-9.5 for the 2.2.0 series) and to get the full fancy smancy features like KNN true distance indexable operators (prior versions are bounding box distance only) you need PostgreSQL 9.5. So use 9.5 when it comes out and test now on the beta. The below options follow the basic sequence of the postgresql windows installer.
