[gdal-dev] Ingesting ESRI geometry into PostGIS

[Paul Ramsey]

This is a non-sequitur "PostgreSQL/PostGIS that has the default geometry_storage parameter set to st_geometry”. The ST_Geometry type is an ESRI thing, and you need to have ESRI dll’s installed in your PostgreSQL/ESRI server in order to create such a column. That’s Problem #1. 

Problem #2 is that GDAL doesn’t support writing to a PostgreSQL/ESRI database, so you’ll have to write a suitable driver for that.

ATB,

All,

I'm trying to use ogr2ogr to ingest FileGDB's into PostgreSQL/PostGIS that has the default geometry_storage parameter set to st_geometry.  When running ogr2ogr with DEBUG on I see a message PG: Field shape is of unknown format type st_multipolygon <type=st_multipolygon> ogr2ogr completes and I can verify that the data is copied into postgis, but the geometries are NOT copied over.  Does anyone have an idea on how to resolve this?

Thanks,

David Vick
