Title: Making maps with postgis
Post by: Mike_Green on September 18, 2009, 07:36:53 PM
I have loaded the postgis programs in accordace with the tutorial, but I do not know where to go from there to make topo maps.  Are there any related tutorial on this site, or any other suggestions?

Thanks, I have checked from time to time with the link to replies to my posts, but I missed this reply.  I did use this tutorial.  I am in Virginia.  A can convert some quads into MP files, but with others on Demo2 it says it is unable to allocate memory.  It seems related to the amount of elivation variations in a quad.  I have one quad successfully converted, but only one.  Thanfully it is the area I priamarily need.  I have another map on my GPS, but I am trying to get more detail here.  Can I go with just the elevation data in the step 9 cobining, and overlay that over my other map in the Garmin 60csx?

Yea, you should be able to just go to step 9, converting and combining.
