    2828<I>September 15, 2010</I><BR><B>WKT Raster becomes THE new PostGIS raster type!</B><BR>It's official! The WKT Raster extension will become the new PostGIS RASTER type in PostGIS 2.0 planned for next april. The PostGIS and the WKT Raster team met at the FOSS4G friday's code sprint and decided that WKT Raster was mature enough to bring interesting new functionalities to PostGIS. A new MapAlgebra function should be added for this release. Congratulation to the whole team for all the work accomplished!<BR><BR>

    30 <I>August 11, 2010</I><BR><B>PostGIS WKT Raster at FOSS4G</B><BR>There should be a lot of discussion about PostGIS WKT Raster at FOSS4G, the most important conference for free and open source software for geomatics, as both Pierre Racine and Jorge Arévalo presentations have been selected by the attendees. Pierre will first introduce the project in a presentation entitled “<A href=http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/attachment/wiki/WKTRaster/FOSS4G2010_Pierre.pdf>Introducing PostGIS WKT Raster: Seamless raster/vector operations in a spatial database</A>” and Jorge will present the result of its meticulous study of the difference between PostGIS WKT Raster and Oracle GeoRaster in a presention entitled “<A href=http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/attachment/wiki/WKTRaster/FOSS4G2010_Pierre.pdf>PostGIS WKT Raster. An Open Source alternative to Oracle GeoRaster</A>”. You can already read Jorge’s first impression in <A href=http://gis4free.wordpress.com/2010/07/19/oracle-georaster-part-i/>his first article in a series</A>. CU September 6th 2010 in Barcelona!<BR><BR>

    3232<I>June 11, 2010</I><BR><B>A tutorial and a book!</B><BR>The <A href=http://www.manning.com/obe/>PostGIS in Action</A> chapter on PostGIS WKT Raster is out! Thanks to Regina Obe and Leo Hsu, there is already a good amount of literature on WKT Raster and this makes WKT Raster to be a little bit more in the PostGIS family. Pierre Racine has also written <A href=http://trac.osgeo.org/postgis/wiki/WKTRasterTutorial01> a tutorial on how to import and intersect a huge raster coverage with a vector coverage</A>. Your raster coverage is huge and you can't work with it in your favorite GIS platform? Read the tutorial! You will be amazed by the simplicity and the speed of the intersection functions. Good reading!<BR><BR>
