Yet another public administration moving to PostgreSQL/PostGIS :)

https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/news/icelands-soil-conservation-service-saving-millions-open-source

"
Icelands's Soil Conservation Service is increasingly relying on free and
open source software solutions. Using the database management systems
Mysql and Postgresql and other open source tools, helps in saving
"millions of Icelandic kronas per year.

[...]

Postgresql is used to manage the agency's many geographic databases. At
the moment, most staffers use proprietary Geographic Information
Systems, but some are trying out Quantum GIS, an open source alternative.
