Dear Regina,

The query returns

"POSTGIS="2.2.0 r14208" GEOS="3.5.0-CAPI-1.9.0 r4090" PROJ="Rel. 4.9.1, 04 
March 2015" GDAL="GDAL 2.0.1, released 2015/09/15" LIBXML="2.7.8" 
LIBJSON="0.12" RASTER"

I just did a quick search for the logs (I am running this on x64 windows 10) 
and could not locate anything. I therefore assume that logging is turned off.  
I'm not sure exactly how to turn it on but will do some digging and report back 
with any logged errors as soon as I figure this out.

The tifs are created using the gdal 2 library (using C) and they are currently 
only up to ~50MB in size  - they are just matrices which contain doubles from 
my model outputs (actually these data are DEMs). They have spatial referencing 
in the metadata and can be displayed without any problem in QGIS directly. The 
problem is I am wanting to extract cell data from transects (defined using 
points in shapefiles) from hundreds, possibly thousands of tifs which are 
output as a timeseries from the model.  Doing this manually would be a little 
time-consuming hence my desire to do this via postgis.  I think once it can see 
the tifs, the actual data extraction will be fairly trivial (I hope).

By the way - thanks for the book!  I have version one also, but only just 
returned to experimenting with postgis after a break of two years or so (hence 
I am really having to re-learn everything).

Best wishes

Darrel

Darrel,

What you are doing sounds fine.  So not sure off hand why it doesn't work.

Can you return the output of

SELECT postgis_full_version();

Just want to see your GDAL version and also that your data directory is being 
picked up.

Also there should be an error in the logs of PostGIS that should give more info 
about the error and if not, you can turn on logging in your db to see what 
queries QGIS is pushing.

Logs are usually kept in postgres data folder in folder pg_logs.


Hope that helps,
Regina

Subject: [postgis-users] I am probably being stupid but I cannot get my rasters 
to display using QGIS

Dear all,

Please accept this elementary question but I have been struggling with this 
despite working through my copy of postgis in action (ver 2).

I have imported my tifs into a table as follows (I am using postgres 9.4 and 
postgis 2.2.0):

raster2pgsql -I -C -M *.tif -F -s 27700  testrast.all | psql -h localhost -U 
postgres -p 5433 -d postgisi_in_action

The table appears in pgAdmin as expected.  At this stage all I am trying to do 
is visualise one of the tifs (there are 30) in QGIS (2.10).  I connect via  
dbmanager and can see the table.

I have tried add to canvas on the 'all' table but it simply falls over.  I also 
tried running a simple query in the sql window

select rid,rast::geometry from testrast.all WHERE rid=1   and adding this as a 
layer.  This produces a box (presumably just of the dimensions of the raster).

How can I get it to display the actual raster image itself?

Frankly I am embarrassed asking this question but I just don't see how to do 
this.

Darrel
