Hello, Not sure this is the right place to post this, if not, could somebody point me to the right place?
I recently had the need to use GeoDjango to define a model that uses a RasterField to store a GeoTIFF raster. https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/ref/contrib/gis/model-api/#rasterfield Upon testing, one of the users of the application found that loading a large GeoTIFF (100Mb+) caused PostgreSQL to fail. More details about the report are available here: https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/WebODM/issues/55 I went around the problem by using a relatively new feature of PostGIS that allows raster files to be stored off db. I noticed that RasterField does not support such feature, so I wrote the code to enable support for it via a new OffdbRasterField (https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/WebODM/blob/master/app/postgis.py). The from_pgraster and to_pgraster functions are modified versions of the same functions found here: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/gis/db/backends/postgis/pgraster.py Just wanted to see if there was an interest in adding off db raster support into GeoDjango core. Perhaps by modifying RasterField to have an additional parameter "offdb=True|False" and implement the necessary logic?
