QGIS connection

QGIS connection

Hi,
I have made a qgis connection to my postgres database, and the connection is
successful. The main issue is where are the maps stored, including the
geometry in order to load them onto qgis?

Regards

Hi,
I don't think that geonode stores uploaded data inside PostGIS.
Bye

AFAIK, uploaded data is stored as Shapefile in GeoServer's data-dir.
You could try using your GeoServer's WFS instead, I believe you should
be able to access uploaded data that way.

Christian and Luca are correct, GeoNode currently does not store uploaded
data in a database.  Layer and map metadata are stored in postgres, using a
table schema autogenerated by the Django ORM.

GeoServer recently added the ability to use the REST API to add uploaded
data to existing datastores.  We plan to make postgis a strict requirement
for GeoNode in a future release and leverage the REST improvements to
integrate vector data (geotiffs will probably remain geotiffs).
