Sugggested by: Martin Davis

Edit all content for prose style consistency, typos, spelling mistakes, etc.

Workbooks

Suggested by: Regina Obe

How to Workbooks that walk a user thru how to use each of the core pieces of PostGIS

• Geometry / Geography - Loading data (shp2pgsql, QGIS DbManager), querying data, viewing data in various tools (OpenJump, QGIS, pgAdmin4), performance tuning
• Topology - Converting existing data into topologies, building topogeometries, viewing data, and querying data
• Raster - Deciding on tiles sizes, Loading raster data with raster2pgsql, querying raster data alone, raster / geometry queries, converting raster to geometry, viewing raster data in QGIS
