Posted on 2009-01-27

When we mapped out the way ahead for zigGIS, we knew we wanted to lay the groundwork to add support for SQL Server 2008 and possibly other database platforms.

Posted on 2009-01-01

Abe announced via Twitter today that zigGIS 2.0.2 will be available in about a month. This a small but significant release becuase zigGIS will now support the generic PostGIS “GEOMETRY” type.

Now that ArcGIS 9.3 has been finalized, I have finally gotten around to testing zigGIS 2.0.1 with it. While the source code is available, I wanted to test the unmodified binary distro.

Coming Up For Air
