AlloyDB Omni does not include the PostGIS extension, but you can manually add it to an existing AlloyDB Omni installation by following the instructions on this page to add support for storing, indexing, and querying geospatial data.
Before you begin
Ensure that you've installed AlloyDB Omni on your system.
Single-server
Add PostGIS to your AlloyDB Omni installation
To add the PostGIS extension to your AlloyDB Omni installation, follow these steps:
- Find your installed AlloyDB Omni version labels:
Docker
docker run --rm -it google/alloydbomni cat VERSION.txt
Podman
podman run --rm -it google/alloydbomni cat VERSION.txt
The output is similar to the following:
AlloyDB Omni version: 15.5.5
Take note of the AlloyDB Omni version number; you need it in the next step.
- Set the
OMNI_VERSION
environment variable:OMNI_VERSION=VERSION
Replace VERSION with the complete database server version from the previous step—for example,
15.5.3
. - Create a new AlloyDB Omni container that includes PostGIS:
Docker

- Create a new container with AlloyDB Omni named
my-omni-postgis
:Docker
docker run --name my-omni-postgis -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=NEW_PASSWORD -d google/alloydbomni-with-postgis:OMNI_VERSION
Podman
podman run --name my-omni-postgis -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=NEW_PASSWORD -d google/alloydbomni-with-postgis:OMNI_VERSION
- Connect to your database with the PostGIS extension:
Docker
docker exec -it my-omni-postgis psql -h localhost -U postgres
Podman
podman exec -it my-omni-postgis psql -h localhost -U postgres
- Enable PostGIS:
The output looks similar to the following:CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS POSTGIS; SELECT postgis_full_version();
