PostGIS is a spatial database extension for the popular PostgreSQL object-relational database. PostGIS “spatially enables” the PostgreSQL server, allowing it to be used as a back-end spatial database for geographic information systems (GIS) and web-mapping applications in the same manner as Microsoft's SQL Server Spatial and Oracle's Spatial database extension.
