Jason: when you say create 2 geometry types one with 2 dimensions etc... 
how do you specify how many dimensions to have?
Because I created the field in this way: 

geom = models.MultiPolygonField(geography=True, spatial_index=True)

and let the Django migration do the job, but I don't know how to specify 
that it's a 3D field.

Thanks
