[postgis-users] PostGIS Raster - Loading MrSID format

[Osahon Oduware]

Hi James,

Thanks for your help. I have previously been able to convert the files from
MrSID format to other formats using GDAL, but my boss doesn't want to
consume extra storage space on the filesystem for another file format as
the initial data is stored as MrSID format and used by other GIS
applications.

I want to know *if there is a way to **load raster data in MrSID format
using the raster2pgsql tool*.
