I am working on a web/mobile application based on location data. Since i am already familiar with MongoDB, i found the geospatial indexing of mongo is quite suitable for my needs. As i am mainly dealing with simple/short location points, Mongo 2d indexing is good for me.
Along the way i picked PostGIS, because of its stable/mature way. And its awesome feature set. But my main concern is performance since my data is heavily dependent on location(mostly 70 - 80% of the db calls deal with the location).
I like mongo because its used by high performance web apps like foursquare already. But i have seen PostGIS is mainly used in government/enterprise projects (mostly non web/mobile apps). So i am little confused right now to choose the right GIS db for my web/mobile app? Got any suggestions?
