PostGIS Experience
Natural Language Spatial Search Engine for Rental Places-Rento
Rento is a free web service that makes it easy to find a place to rent in Greece. Powered by PostgreSQL and PostGIS, it provides ad listings with photographs displayed on a map. Searching is accomplished through map navigation and natural language processing, with the search engine being capable of answering complex (spatial) questions such as "flat near the University of Athens" or "loft up to 800 euros near a metro station" (in greek).
Open Source Web Mapping Pilot – AT&T Wireless
AT&T Wireless needed to roll out web map services to a public audience, but their proprietary software was too slow and expensive to scale up. Refractions built a pilot project on open source software and free data that demonstrated a 10-fold performance increase and no licensing overhead.
PostGIS Implementation Advice – SANZ / EarthWhere
Refractions helped SANZ tune their database design and database queries to provide maximum performance and flexibility for their EarthWhere application suite.
Open Source Company
Refractions sponsors and develops PostGIS as an open source
project in collaboration with developers from around the world.
