Importing tiles with raster2pgsql

[Andreas B]

Regina,

I'm using Debian 12 (bookworm).
PostgreSQL and PostGIS installed with apt:

# SELECT version();
                                                       version

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 15.10 (Debian 15.10-0+deb12u1) on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled
by gcc (Debian 12.2.0-14) 12.2.0, 64-bit
(1 row)

# SELECT PostGIS_full_version();

postgis_full_version

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 POSTGIS="3.3.2 4975da8" [EXTENSION] PGSQL="150" GEOS="3.11.1-CAPI-1.17.1"
PROJ="9.1.1" LIBXML="2.9.14" LIBJSON="0.16" LIBPROTOBUF="1.4.1"
WAGYU="0.5.0 (Internal)"
(1 row)

raster2pgsql version:

$ raster2pgsql
RELEASE: 3.3.2 GDAL_VERSION=36 (4975da8)

The tiles are available; I'll try my workflow again, document, and share
the tiles.

Thanks!

Best,
Andreas
