9 | | [https://www.pgadmin.org pgAdmin] graphical user interface (GUI) administration tool for [https://www.postgresql.org PostgreSQL] that allows you to execute spatial queries using [https://postgis.net PostGIS] on geospatial data. Currently, there is no integrated geospatial data viewer in pgAdmin and external applications, such as [https://postgis.net QGIS], are required. For this project, you will develop a GUI that allows users to view the tables in a spatial database and the results of queries executed as geometries. Also, refer to [https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/ticket/3648#no1 this page] for more detail on the project. |
| 9 | We have asked the community for ideas and suggestion to improve the geometry viewer. The mailing thread is available [https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/postgis-devel/2019-January/027677.html here]. The main ideas for improvements or new functionalities are as follows: |
| 10 | * Shapefile loader plugin for pgAdmin4 |
| 11 | * Overlay queries |
| 12 | * [https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/3601 Highlight geometries] |
| 13 | * [https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/3951 Basic styling of the features on the map] |
| 14 | * Events, such as mouse over, to show attributes |
| 15 | * Optimising for large data sets, for example, drawing only a subset |
| 16 | * Rendering of raster queries |
| 17 | * Other requests in the email thread |
