[postgis-users] How To Load SRTM Files into PostGIS

[Jorge Arévalo]

Hi,

In the current situation, I think PostGIS Raster won't work with PostGIS 1.5.3.

But Puneet, both versions can live in the same system. You can compile
PostGIS 2.0 with raster support, create a new database and enable it
with PostGIS 2.0 including PostGIS Raster. At same time, your existing
database, enabled with PostGIS 1.5.3, should work without problems.

In my Ubuntu box, I use PostGIS 1.5.3 and PostGIS 2.0, if helps.
