PostGIS
sgr
can also work with PostGIS, an extension for
PostgreSQL that adds support for geospatial data. By default, due to space
requirements, the sgr
engine image doesn't come with PostGIS installed, but
you can upgrade your engine to use a PostGIS-enabled image
(splitgraph/engine:[version]-postgis
):
$ sgr engine upgrade --image splitgraph/engine:stable-postgis
$ sgr sql "CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS postgis"
The
PostGIS example
will guide you through plotting a map of votes in New York City in the 2016 US
Presidential Election using sgr
, PostGIS and
GeoPandas.
