Most of the work our company (GlobeXplorer) has done with postGIS has been in US markets where such things as dateline math isn't much of an issue. We use SRID 4326 to store the data in.
We (DigitalGlobe) are evaluating PostgreSQL and Oracle for a largish project using data all over the planet, and before I make any bald assertions I thought I'd ask and see if there are: a) know issues with datelines or other gnarly parts of the world ? b) workarounds ? Thanks for any info ... tried trolling the website and didn't find any caveats, but the mail list archive isn't really searchable so I am hoping this is not a FAQ (if it is, point me at it!).
