Their project data is currently within folders (including all GIS data). I have
been doing a bit of research when I came across PostgreSQL and PostGIS. I plan
to use PostGreSQl with PostGIS as a spatial extender. I have installed the
PostGreSQL and PostGIS as well as viewed data stored in the database with QGIS.
I need an easy method whereby the employees in the company can access data from
the database on a user friendly interface. Everyone in the company is familiar
with Google Earth. Is there a way that I can link Google Earth with PostGIS to
achieve this? <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
