What problem does it solve?
PostGIS-patterns provides a structured collection of spatial design patterns and conventions to accelerate building GIS-enabled applications with PostGIS, GeoDjango, and GeoAlchemy2, ensuring consistent data modeling, querying, and performance best practices.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Geometry vs geography guidance: when to store as geometry or geography and how SRID handling impacts queries.
- Indexing and performance: recommended GiST indexes, bounding box filtering, and best practices for fast spatial queries.
- Spatial queries and operations: common patterns for distance, containment, intersections, and spatial joins using PostGIS functions.
- Framework integration: GeoDjango setup, PostGIS-enabled models, and GeoAlchemy2 integration examples for SQLAlchemy-based apps.
- Reference material: ready-to-use reference documents and examples to accelerate implementation across projects.
Quick Start
Apply the patterns by reviewing the reference documents to implement PostGIS geometry and geography handling in your project.
