Name

postgis.gdal_datapath — A configuration option to assign the value of GDAL's GDAL_DATA option. If not set, the environmentally set GDAL_DATA variable is used.

Descripción

A PostgreSQL GUC variable for setting the value of GDAL's GDAL_DATA option. The postgis.gdal_datapath value should be the complete physical path to GDAL's data files.

This configuration option is of most use for Windows platforms where GDAL's data files path is not hard-coded. This option should also be set when GDAL's data files are not located in GDAL's expected path.

[Note]

This option can be set in PostgreSQL's configuration file postgresql.conf. It can also be set by connection or transaction.

Disponibilidad: 2.2.0

[Note]

Additional information about GDAL_DATA is available at GDAL's Configuration Options.
