 <B>What's new about WKT Raster?</B><BR><BR>

+<I>August 11, 2010</I><BR><B>PostGIS WKT Raster at FOSS4G</B><BR>There should be a lot of speaking about PostGIS WKT Raster at FOSS4G, the most important conference for free and open source software for geomatics, as both Pierre Racine and Jorge Arévalo presentations have been selected by the attendees. Pierre will first introduce the project in a presentation entitled “Introducing PostGIS WKT Raster: Seamless raster/vector operations in a spatial database” and Jorge will present the result of its meticulous study of the difference between PostGIS WKT Raster and Oracle GeoRaster in a presention entitled “PostGIS WKT Raster. An Open Source alternative to Oracle GeoRaster”. You can already read Jorge’s first impression in his article. CU September 6th 2010 in Barcelona!<BR><BR>
 
 <I>June 11, 2010</I><BR><B>A tutorial and a book!</B><BR>The <A href=http://www.manning.com/obe/>PostGIS in Action</A> chapter on PostGIS WKT Raster is out! Thanks to Regina Obe and Leo Hsu, there is already a good amount of literature on WKT Raster and this makes WKT Raster to be a little bit more in the PostGIS family. Pierre Racine has also written <A href=http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/WKTRasterTutorial01> a tutorial on how to import and intersect a huge raster coverage with a vector coverage</A>. Your raster coverage is huge and you can't work with it in your favorite GIS platform? Read the tutorial! You will be amazed by the simplicity and the speed of the intersection functions. Good reading!<BR><BR>
