    28 <I>August 27, 2012</I><BR><B>FME 2013 will soon read and write rasters stored in PostGIS!</B><BR>David Bélanger, geomatic scientist at the <A href=http://www.nrcan.gc.ca/earth-sciences/about/organization/organization-structure/centre-for-topographic-information/11744>Centre for Topographic Information</A>, the Canada's national topographic mapping agency, informed me last week that they have contracted <A href=http://www.safe.com/>Safe Software</A> to write a reader, a writer and some others functionalities to interact with rasters stored in PostGIS! These tools should be released with FME 2013 and already available in <A href=http://www.safe.com/support/support-resources/fme-downloads/beta/>future beta versions of FME</A> this fall. A great news for the PostGIS community!<BR><BR>

    3030On the GDAL side, lots of improvement have been recently done on the <A href=http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/frmts_wtkraster.html>PostGIS Raster driver</A>. You can now read irregular arrangements of raster and translate them into any format supported by GDAL. We are still looking for sponsors to implement the writer part of the driver.<BR><BR>
