We'll cover 10 problems where we've found PostGIS to be the easiest and fastest tool for the job. Areas covered will be: Proximity Analysis Statistical aggregation of data by location Mapping Routing Geocoding Unlikely uses for PostGIS -- non-spatial problems solved by re-imagining the problem as a spatial one.
