This tutorial walks you through how to create a geometry dataset and time series dataset that directly connects to an external PostgreSQL database with PostGIS extension. This allows you to visualize and analyze spatio-temporal data without uploading files.
|
The platform supports multiple types of data sets. This tutorial covers working with geometry data and time series data already defined in a database. The platform also supports creating data sets by uploading files. |
You will need:
A PostgreSQL database with the PostGIS extension enabled.
Two tables:
A geometry table with spatial features (e.g. roads, sensors, etc.).
A time series table with associated time-based measurements.
The names of these tables and the credentials to access your database.
