Using Cloud Rasters with PostGIS | Crunchy Data Blog

Paul shows you how to access raster data stored in the cloud or object storage for PostGIS using cloud optimized GeoTIFF (aka COG) files. He also includes some functions for working with raster elevation.

@avlcharlie I truncated the error message to fit in the 500 character limit of chaos.social. This failure probably needs a longer post for context; terse version follows:
I found I can drag a layer in QGis to my local #PostGIS database and drop it into the a DB instance. Poof! The data goes from a KML or whatever, into a fully-formed PostgreSQL object.
Until now, when the layer came from ESRI formatted x/y content. I *think* the CRS map projection being over 1000000 hit a bump. To be continued.

I have been watching the codification of spatial data types into GeoParquet and now GeoIceberg with some interest, since the work is near and dear to my heart. Writing a disk serialization for PostGIS is basically an act of format standardization – albeit a standard with only one consumer – and many of the same issues that the Parquet and Iceberg implementations are thinking about are ones I d...
