Matt,
If you are using Python, you might want to take a look at Shapely. Although
it was designed for doing PostGIS like operations without PostGIS, its built
on GEOS and I think has functions for importing wkb and hexwkb format.
ST_AsBinary(geog)
The output of geometry/geography are hexewkb, which shapely might understand
alone or you might have to do geog::geometry.
Perhaps someone on the list who actually has experience with shapely can
testify to its fit for your particular use case.
http://gispython.org/shapely/docs/1.2/manual.html#well-known-formats
Hope that helps,
Regina

Subject: [postgis-users] How do I parse postGIS types in my app code?
I have a column with type geography('point').
When I load the contents of that column into python, I get something like
this:
'0101000020E6100000D0A39872F4E955C0D66EBBD05CF94440'
I know how to use the ST_X and ST_Y functions in order to extract latitude
and longitude (thanks to this list, BTW) but sometimes I would like to not
have to do that in SQL.
Any ideas?
Matt
