earthdistance - Calculate great circle distances on the surface of the Earth, perfect for geospatial applications requiring distance calculations.

insert_username - Functions for tracking who changed a table, automatically recording user information for audit trails.

intagg - Integer aggregator and enumerator functions (note: this extension is deprecated but available for legacy compatibility).

moddatetime - Functions for tracking last modification time, automatically updating timestamp fields when records are modified.
