Create Database
======================
If you do not have an existing PostGIS database, you can create one from your QGIS Project.
You can create PostGIS databases via your QWC2 control panel.
You can create emtpy PostGIS databases or databases from GeoPackages, Shapefiles, or PostgreSQL Dump Files.
Below, we'll create a new, empty PostGIS database.
1. Go to PostGIS
On the PostGIS Menu, click the Import tab
