[Qgis-user] Remote Access by Multiple Users

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Stewart,

For Multi-User data editing I definitely recommend using PostgreSQL (the 
server should be in the same LAN than the clients editing). Geopackage 
isn't designed for multi-user editing. Two users using Geopackage "read 
only" should work though.

The QGIS project can be stored in Geopackage or PostgreSQL, but is 
normally a separate file (.qgz or .qgs). The project file doesn't store 
the geodata but only the references to the files, databases or web 
services as well as any configuration and styling.

Hope this helps,

Andreas
