[postgis-users] ArcGIS desktop accessing and reading from PostGIS

[Shaozhong SHI]

Hi, Bruce,

Thanks.

I will have a good read.

Surely, data needs to be uploaded into PostGIS correctly.  Any definitive
guide or documentation available?

And, how about loading data into PostGIS for MapInfo users?

Regards,

Shao
