PostGIS vs BaseDash: What are the differences?

PostGIS: Open source spatial database. PostGIS is a spatial database extender for PostgreSQL object-relational database. It adds support for geographic objects allowing location queries to be run in SQL; BaseDash: Airtable for your product’s actual database. Airtable for your product’s actual database. Access your database with the ease of a spreadsheet. Use it to manage users, provide customer support, or export raw data for analysis.

PostGIS and BaseDash can be primarily classified as "Database" tools.

Some of the features offered by PostGIS are:

  • Processing and analytic functions for both vector and raster data for splicing, dicing, morphing, reclassifying, and collecting/unioning with the power of SQL
  • raster map algebra for fine-grained raster processing
  • Spatial reprojection SQL callable functions for both vector and raster data

On the other hand, BaseDash provides the following key features:

  • View and edit data in a beautiful interface
  • Track the edit history of each record
  • Write and share queries collaboratively

PostGIS is an open source tool with 753 GitHub stars and 268 GitHub forks. Here's a link to PostGIS's open source repository on GitHub.

What are some alternatives to BaseDash and PostGIS?
Slick
It is a modern database query and access library for Scala. It allows you to work with stored data almost as if you were using Scala collections while at the same time giving you full control over when a database access happens and which data is transferred.
Spring Data
It makes it easy to use data access technologies, relational and non-relational databases, map-reduce frameworks, and cloud-based data services. This is an umbrella project which contains many subprojects that are specific to a given database.
Dataform
Dataform helps you manage all data processes in your cloud data warehouse. Publish tables, write data tests and automate complex SQL workflows in a few minutes, so you can spend more time on analytics and less time managing infrastructure.
DB
With DB you can very easily save, restore, and archive snapshots of your database from the command line. It supports connecting to different database servers (for example a local development server and a staging or production server) and allows you to load a database dump from one environment into another environment.
Liquibase
Liquibase is th leading open-source tool for database schema change management. Liquibase helps teams track, version, and deploy database schema and logic changes so they can automate their database code process with their app code process.
