uDig GIS: A First Look (Linux Journal)uDig GIS: A First Look (Linux Journal)Posted Oct 21, 2008 23:34 UTC (Tue) by jgarnett (guest, #54722)In reply to: uDig GIS: A First Look (Linux Journal) by deleteme Parent article: uDig GIS: A First Look (Linux Journal)
For raster data you run out of memory quickly; On uDig trunk I have worked
with an "image moasic" (think a shapefile where each row indicates a raster file on disk) of several thousand MRSID files; each file was 20 GIGs... there are a couple competing projects to use PostGIS as a spatial index for directories of raster files as we speak.
Even with just vector data we manage sneak up to the limits of memory
