- edoceo 7y agoI'm future you! I made the mistake of taking a system that did some GIS like things. The first layer was easy! PG has some handy built in types! Hoory. But then Business needed features! Two years later you've got eight half-baked complex features that would have been almost trivial with this extension. Don't make my mistake again! Yea, you may not need it but, you will WANT it.
