[postgis-users] PostGIS ver. 1.0+ to be supported in ESRI ArcGIS9.2

[Nicolas Ribot]

> For those interested in this message a few points.
> First the extension is $2500.  Not exactly pocket change.
> Second there is a program called pgarc on sourceforge that allows access
> to PostGIS from ArcMap.  It was created by Nicolas Ribot.  I have taken
> the code and have it running on ArcMap 9.1 as a read-only SDE type
> interface.  I also added the ability to load only the features in the
> display extent, and define the ESRI projection from the PostGIS srid.
> It can also handle a different projection in the display than the
> database.  It only works to read data from the database - I didn't want
> the write functions so I didn't do anything to those.  Nicolas has
> graciously asked if I would like to post my changes to the sourceforge
> site but I am not sure how to do that and I don't know how to build and
> installation extension.  If anyone is interested and can help with the
> posting let me know. Otherwise the code is available but it is
> owned(copyrighted?) by Nicolas.
> Thanks!

PgArc is an Open Source project under the BSD licence.
The project is not actively maintained, as far as I know.
