Spatial SQL isn’t Scary

Spatial SQL Isn’t Scary—it’s a practical and powerful way to work with vector and raster geospatial data using the lingua franca of the database world: Structured Query Language (SQL). By combining a relational database management system like PostgreSQL with its spatial extension, PostGIS, users gain access to a rich set of spatial functions—often described as having a full “GIS in a box.” Geared toward introductory users, this webinar walks through basic SQL queries, common spatial queries in PostGIS, and shows how Spatial SQL fits naturally into everyday workflows in QGIS.
