| 3 | Section 2: Installation | |
| 4 | ======================= | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | We will be using the OpenGeo Suite as our software package, as it includes PostGIS/PostgreSQL in a single fast installation for Windows, Apple OS/X, and Linux. The Suite also includes GeoServer, OpenLayers, and a number of web visualization utilities. | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | .. note:: | |
| 9 | ||
| 10 | If you want to install just PostgreSQL, it can also be downloaded directly as source code or binary from the PostgreSQL project site: http://postgresql.org/download/. After installing PostgreSQL, use the "StackBuilder" utility to add the PostGIS extension. | |

| 14 | The precise directions in this document are for Windows, but for OS/X the installation is largely the same. Once the Suite is installed, the directions for both operating systems should be almost identical. | |
