Not sure how, but I managed to add hibernate spatial to my Maven build, download it and run it in under five minutes. I don't have much of a project yet, but Hibernate3 found my single entity bean and generated DDL to create the table. A painless adoption. I'm floored.

It was a quick start indeed.

Thank you for your offer of support.

Everyone Else

Thank you to everyone who responded. Nice community.

FYI. I'm creating a "mashup" (not sure how I feel about that word) of the New Orleans recovery, using PostGIS + Hibernate + Google Maps (or other). I'm inspired by what I've read of the BC Digital Road Atlas.

It's a strange environment here, where a lot of people are mapping their neighborhoods as a matter of course. The city GIS is lacking and maps are needed for funding and lobbying, so people are doing it themselves. Looking to provide new visualizations for this grass roots GIS.

Here are a bunch of GIS related posts.

Anyway, I hope that you'll be seeing more of me around these parts. If anyone has any suggested reading please email me directly. I'd sure appreciate it.

Hi Alan,

I wrote a Hibernate extension for spatial databases, called Hibernate Spatial. You can find the project at http:// www.hibernatespatial.org/ . I think it has what you're looking for.

I'd like to get started with PostGIS though Hibernate. However, there is not much to start with.

There is a PowerPoint discussing how the British Columbia Digital Road Atlas uses Hibernate to bridget between PostGIS and Java Topology Suite geometries.

There is a dash of example code at the PostGIS website.

It seems to extend the PostgreSQL Hibernate dialect and it might be all that is needed to obtain full PostGIS support, but I'm uncertain.

Any guidance?
