hi georg,<br>
<br>
this is no postgis-specific question. You connect from python as
connecting to any postgresql-DB. You just have a bunch of
postgis-functions available on SQl-side<br>
<br>

<br>
P.S. if you are familiar with python you also could write new
functions in postgreSQL using plpythonu as processing language
within postgis/postgreSQL<br>

Hi, I am new to postgis (1.5 under Win 7) but have read enough to
feel hopeful that it could be just what I need. I have a very
large number of shape files which I have loaded in my first
postgis database generating some hundreds of tables with vector
data. So far so good, but now I need to use it to create queries
and extract information in batch using Python. I have seen
statements by people who used Python to access postgis databases
but I have not been able to find any coded examples which show :<br>
1) how to connect to the database<br>
2) how to perform queries on the data<br>
3) how to extract the results from the queries, etc...<br>
<br>
(all of which can be done in Python easily with MySql )<br>
<br>
Can you please point me to any document which gives examples or
code fragments to do the above.<br>
Many thanks,<br>
George<br>
