     7PostGIS Raster (previously known as 'WKT Raster') is the project that provides '''raster support on PostGIS'''. Since October 1st, 2010, is an official part of PostGIS project. Further information [http://gis4free.wordpress.com/2010/10/01/wkt-raster-is-now-postgis-raster/ here].

     11The next version of the driver will be released during October 2010, and will include these features:
     12  * Out-db raster support.
    1013  * Reading of non-regular blocked rasters.
    11   * Out-db raster support.
    12   * Create and modify rasters.
    13   * Full integration with the GDAL utility programs.
     14
     15In further versions: create and modify PostGIS rasters.

     17This new version will have 3 raster reading working modes:
     18  * Browse Mode: If the user only provides dabatase name (and optionally, schema name), the driver searches for raster tables in that database.
     19  * ONE_RASTER_PER_ROW mode: The default mode, if the user provides a table name. Each of the raster table rows is considered as a different raster.
     20  * ONE_RASTER_PER_TABLE mode: If the user specify a table name and this mode (still not defined the way of doing it. Probably, as an additional parameter in connection string), all the rows of the table will be considered as tiles of the same raster coverage. The whole raster extent will be calculated. The driver will deal with things like rows with different srid, or snapping to different grids.

     22The rest of the documentation is referred to the current driver version, and will be updated as soon as the new version of the driver will be released.
