Just to update those who might be interested- I've finished the data
load into one of our servers at work. It comes to ~60GB on disk in
PostgreSQL/PostGIS with appropriate indexes in most places and whatnot.
Based on what I've seen so far, it looks *very* nice, especially the
hydrogrophy ("areawater"). It also appears to be pretty consistant
across the layers, which is also good.
If anyone's interested in the scripts used to load the data (they're
pretty simple, really), I'd be happy to provide them.
Enjoy,
Stephen
