[Qgis-user] Using QGIS as a spacial database

[Samuel Lacrampe]

Hello,

My company is trying to obtain a GIS software to use as a database for our spatial technical data. I thought of QGIS, but without having to install additional database programs such as PostGIS.
I don't want to obtain another database program because we already use one called Ajera, which is a regular (non-spatial) database program.
The technical data I want to store on QGIS would be information that can be used on the software called CadnaA. Examples are: points, lines, area, 3D objects, images, photos, contour maps etc. The limitation with CadnaA is that it can only contain about 1000 objects are once, which is enough for a single project model, but not enough for us to store data from many projects. My thought is that QGIS could serve as the "middle database" to store all the spatial information, which could then be transferred into CadnaA as needed for analysis purposes.
Is QGIS alone, without the use of further database programs such as PostGIS, adequate for this?

I hope my question is clear enough.
Thank you,
Samuel Lacrampe, P.Eng., INCE
