PostGIS documentation.

The City of Boston’s Analytics Team recently implemented a new data warehouse platform built with Civis Analytics. We pushed for Postgres as the backend of the warehouse so that we could leverage its PostGIS extension in our data pipelines and analysis.

• PostGIS tips: Where to get started
• PostGIS tips: Working with geometry columns and projection systems
• PostGIS tips: How to get insights from your data
