Unless `-e POSTGRES_DB` is passed to the container at startup time, this database will be named after the admin user (either `postgres` or the user specified with `-e POSTGRES_USER`). If you would prefer to use the older template database mechanism for enabling PostGIS, the image also provides a PostGIS-enabled template database called `template_postgis`.

## Versions

This repo provides images tagged a few different ways:
* `$version` - debian package;
* pro: matured; recomended for the most users; easy to extend with other debian packages
* con: older geos, proj, gdal
* `$version-alpine` - alpine based.
* pro: minimal image size; recommended for testing.
* con: musl based; harder to extend.
* `$version-master` - last "master"/"main" for posgis.geos,gdal dependencies; experimental
* pro: for testing;
* con: larger image size. experimental; not easy to extend
