[postgis-users] PARTIALLY RESOLVED: Geography/geometry

[Simon Greener]

I replaced the shapefile load script dropping ogr2ogr in favor of shp2pgshp.

This appears to have given me clean multipolygons as nothing was reported by the following:

select ST_ISValidReason(a.geog4326::geometry)
   from data.osm_county as a
  where ST_IsValidReason(a.geog4326::geometry) <> 'Valid Geometry'

I discovered though this process that the original shapefile had 10 counties that were duplicated.
I used postgresql to delete the duplicates.

All my SQL appears to be working.

Perhaps Martin is right: there is something wrong with the ogr2ogr load (though I switched from -nlt POLYGON to -nlt PROMOTE_TO_MULTI and it didn't make any difference).

I think this request for help can now be closed.

Thanks to all.

regards
Simon
