New Book: Mastering PostGIS and OpenStreetMap
A new book by Ryan Lambert teaches Postgres and PostGIS using real-world data from OpenStreetMap.
This book provides a practical guide to introduce readers to PostGIS, OpenStreetMap data, and spatial querying. Queries used for examples are written against real OpenStreetMap data (included) to help you learn how to navigate and explore complex spatial data. The examples start simple and quickly progress through a variety of clever spatial queries and powerful techniques.
Looking at the sample chapter, Mastering PostGIS and OpenStreetMap is very hands-on and very technical.
You can purchase the book for $99 from the website; it’s available in three formats: HTML, PDF and ePub.
