[postgis-users] Newbie question #2 -- visualizing large datasets?

[Craig Miller]

Try using "generalize" in your PostGIS query to limit the number of vertices
that are returned when zoomed way out.

Subject: [postgis-users] Newbie question #2 -- visualizing large datasets?

Is there a way to visualize massive databases of points or polygons?  I'm
talking data much larger than I've been able to display in arc or grass
environments using their basic vector coverage formats.  Thanks!
