Welcome to the '''WKT Raster''' project home page!


[wiki:WKTRaster WKT Raster] is an ongoing project aiming at developing '''raster support in PostGIS'''. It is a new project very different from the previous PGRaster project and also very different from [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoRaster Oracle Spatial GeoRaster].

The goal of WKT Raster is to implement the RASTER type '''as much as possible like the GEOMETRY type''' is implemented in PostGIS and to offer '''a single set of overlay SQL functions''' (like ST_Intersects) operating '''seamlessly''' on vector and raster coverages.
