    as far as I understand it (and I could be wrong on some of this) <br>
    <ul>
      <li>Desktop will support reading if you load the postgresql
        library files (that can be downloaded form your ESRI customer
        care portal). <br>
      </li>
      <li>Once those are loaded you can read through a definition query
        data from postgis into arcgis. I just made a map using arcgis
        and reading data from postgis. <br>
      </li>
      <li>It doesn't support write unless you have SDE for Postgresql -
        which isn't postgis. That dives into the world of ArcGIS
        Server....<br>
      </li>
    </ul>
    <p><br>
      ArcGIS supposedly is moving to being able to read/write the
      geopackage format which to me opens read/write to PostGIS. BUT if
      they open read write for postgis that starts a slow death of
      SDE....so I don't believe it ever will (for the foreseeable
      future). <br>

      <pre wrap="">I'm asked from time to time for an advice which ArcGIS product
supports PostGIS (read/write)?
Even after reading the Esri pages I'm not sure if it's only "ArcGIS
for Server Workgroup" (formerly ArcSDE).
Does it work also with ArcGIS for Desktop Basic (ArcView)?

Yours, S.
