Unfortunately the ground layouts are not (yet) managed from our common
scenery database.  To be honest, I've probably never ever looked
seriously at the structure of these ground network files (at least not
in the past seven years), thus there _might_ be an easy way to
represent these in a PostgreSQL/PostGIS database - I just don't know of
any effort to make this happen.

Any volunteer(s) ?  Proper representation of ground network nodes as
PostGIS (actually OGC) geometry data type preferred.

Cheers,
        Martin.
