Step 2 - Create AddressBase database

We need to create the database for the AddressBase Premium Importer. This is done via PG Admin.

  • Open PG Admin
  • Double click on the PostgreSQL 9.0 node and enter a password if required.
  • Right click on the Databases node and select New Database....


  • Enter the Name as "addressbase"  as this name is used by the Importer.
  • If you have iShare already installed then select the Owner as "iShareData" which has Superuser privileges, otherwise make sure that the selected user has the following Role privileges:

  • Select "template_postgis" as the Template
  • Leave the other defaults and click OK.
