I'm very interested in the code. Please send it to me.

Betreff: Re: [postgis-users] Postgis and Dynamic Segmentation

I implemented some basic dyn. segmentation functions (aka linear
referencing) 
on top of the existing geometries (3D lines) and use the Z value as the M (-

measure) value. I'm planning to migrate the function to the new LWGEOM over 
the next few weeks. 

The functions are written in C and include functions for:
- creating measures on geometries
- returning a new shape based on from/to arguments (or only from in case of 
points)
- return the 'measure' for a given location along the point

If somebody is interested in the code, let me know and I can send it along.

cheers,
Christoph

BTW. when will the new LWGEOM format be released? Will it work transparently

with the exiting geometry format? It would be good to know, so that any 
development efforts can be put into the 'correct' format.
