Thanks for browsing! I hadn’t thought of the outliers such as yourself which may have had a previous installation of PostgreSQL! Good note on that.
Also, I would like to add that this tutorial will be making its way to the NACIS web-based Cartographic Perspectives journal. It is currently being translated into a more concise and authoritative version. It will also include an extra PostGIS query section which will expand upon how spatial databases empower the GIS user for dissecting large amounts of spatial data.
