Re: GSoC 2017 -- Support the standard GIS objects
Hi all,
I have created a proposal for this project and have shared the proposal
with the apache community in the GSoC site. Also find the link below:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/12v-7FUNcPF6pkQZ-hkXfEirG
2oodr_bgFHkygDuptrE/edit?usp=sharing
Please kindly provide your feedback on this proposal and any suggestions on
how I could improve this.
Thank you very much.
Yours sincerely,
Riyafa

Hi,
I resolved the comments and modified the report based on the suggestion.
Further I am currently looking at the similarities between JTS and ESRI
Geometry APIs to find the similarities and the differences between the two.
Thank you.
Yours sincerely,
Riyafa

Re: GSoC 2017 -- Support the standard GIS objects
Posted by Ahmed Eldawy <el...@cs.ucr.edu>.
Hi Riyafa,
I suggest that you start by familiarizing yourself with Java Topology Suite
(JTS) [https://github.com/locationtech/jts] and ESRI Geometry API [
https://github.com/Esri/geometry-api-java]. JTS has been around for a
longer time so I guess it's more stable. ESRI API has been launched
recently but it supports both Well-Known formats and GeoJSON which can be a
big advantage for us. You can start by investigating both of them so we can
decide which one to use.
For the record: JTS is distributed under Eclipse Distribution License and
ESRI API is distributed under Apache 2.0 License.
Thanks
Ahmed
