Postgis adds support for geographic objects to the postgresql object-relational database. in effect, postgis "spatially enables" the postgresql server, allowing it to be used as a backend spatial database for geographic information systems (gis), much like esri's sde or oracle's spatial extension. postgis follows the opengis "simple features specification for sql".

this package supports postgresql 8.4.
