7 | | During the 2018 GSoC, Xuri Gong developed a geometry viewer for pgAdmin4. The new geometry viewer was released as part of pgAdmin from pgAdmin4 v3.3 ([http://www.bostongis.com/blog/index.php?/archives/272-pgAdmin4-now-offers-PostGIS-geometry-viewer.html read more here]). The viewer allows the user to view geometires directly in pgAdmin, which was not possible previously . The report from 2018 GSoC is available [https://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/GeospatialDataViewerInPgAdmin4ForPostGIS here]. |
