[postgis-users] ArcGIS Mobile slightly off-topic question

Regina,
If what you are tackling is something that does a cross-walk between a Esri-geodatabase and PostGIS db, I am very interested in this topic.  I am in a mixed media shop, which means I use PostGIS and everyone else uses MS/Esri-centric stuff, and this would really be a leg up for not only integrating PostGIS, but also getting the job done.

I don't know what the appropriate stream for this is, but I will certainly follow any threads on this listserv, or if you want to take it off list, feel free to add my email to any (email in signature below).

I work mainly in PHP, and have written some objects that talk to MSAccess files via ODBC (personal geodatabase), and do some exchange of data with postGres in this fashion.  My current thought on the matter is to simply create a daemon to run in the background and sync my PG database with the personal geodatabase every 5 minutes or so, but would be willing to get my hands dirty with Python if that was the optimal solution.

Thanks, and good luck!

Hi Regina,

    easiest way is to create your model in Model Builder and then export it,
as someone has mentionated. Then you can export it as script and modify it.
    There isn´t a lot of info about this topic. Arcgis help is not very
useful ( sometimes the help examples doesn´t work). You have to be careful
with python versions supported by your arcgis version ( there is info in
ESRI forums about how to change your python version, and wich are suported).

There is a geoprocessor model pdf, but no info about toolboxes methods... 
It´s a try-error process to understand each toolboxes' methods... And as you
can find  in ESRI forums, sometimes it doesn´t work...
    I´ve got some docs recopilated about this topic. If you´re interested
send me a mail.

Gus
