[postgis-users] PostGIS table structure

[Eli Dylan Lorimer]

Hi,
I'm going to be tracking myself with a gps for the next few months and 
will be storing the collection of waypoints in a PostgreSQL/PostGIS db 
for subsequent visualization. I'm just now trying to figure out the 
best table structure to use. Although I'm pretty unfamiliar with 
spatial databases in general, I believe I'll want to store the lat/lon 
as point objects, correct? As the primary purpose of storing all this 
info is so that I may examine spatio-temporal patterns in it, the time 
stamp for each waypoint is very important too. Can anyone recommend a 
general way to go about storing this data? I'm just looking for a few 
general ideas and/or pitfalls to avoid so as not to screw myself in the 
end. Much thanks.
