[postgis-users] New to PostGIS question.

[Eric Sepich]

I exported a .shp full of polygons to my PostGIS enabled database. I think
the data is in WKB (Well known binary format) but I am not sure yet.
Attached is a screenshot. I need to write a query to return the first shape
in the table and I need to be able to get the coordinates of the shape into
an array. My language will be PHP to start out with. I have been reading the
documentation but I really don't understand enough yet to really get
started. Does anyone know readily how to do something like this?

Thank you,
Eric S.
