The goal is also to shed light on the issues arising from the first public policies for managing natural resources once French sovereignty was affirmed in the late 19th. The data collected in SPACK are stored in the object-relational database, PostgreSQL, plus its spatial extension PostGIS. This repository can be used to create a new instance of the SPACK database. It contains 7 SQL files that represent the main tables of the SPACK model. - attested_presence_areas: this table shows the dates on which the vessel is present in ... |
