title: Hibernate Spatial with PostGIS's Geography Type
body: <p>I just added a column of type Geography to a Postgres database that is accessed by an application using hibernate and hibernate spatial. Whenever I access that column with hibernate I get an error saying "Can't convert object of type org.postgresql.util.PGobject". I was using an older version of hibernate spatial but it seems that even the newest version does not support the Geography datatype. Is this really the case or did I just miss something. Is there a way I can work around this limitation?</p>
