PostGIS objects for Objective-C?  I don't know of any.  I do know of 
Java classes
for displaying geometries from a PostGIS source (GeoTools, JUMP, 
others), and the
start of classes for Python (in psycopg).  These might serve as 
inspiration.

This is the first I've heard of anyone using PostGIS at CSU.  I'm on 
campus fairly
often, sometime you should show me what you're doing.  I'm an Apple 
user so am
interested in what you're doing with Objective-C.

cheers,
Sean
