[postgis-devel] shp2pgsql

[David Haynes II]

Nothing published yet, but we are developing a working document.
Mostly we are testing this viability of spatial datasets and if a platform
supports complex spatial queries (i.e. vector raster overlay distributed
across a series of nodes). In addition we plan to conducting testing on
tile size and raster density in relation to these complex queries.
