From November 14th – 21st, 2023, members of the RIESGOS 2.0 project traveled to Chile and Perú to present the results of their work to partners in both countries.
Simple Features for protobuf and others – Final Blog Post
My experience with the GSoC 2017 project “Simple Features for Protobuf and others” came to an end by presenting my results at the Geospatial Sensor Webs Conference 2017. It was really pleasing to see that a majority of the audience was really interested in the project outcome and eager to see it progress in the future.more >
Simple Features for protobuf and others – Mid Term Blog Post
Introduction
The core idea of my GSoC 2017 project “Simple Features for protobuf and others” is to define and implement a serialization API for spatial vector data, which will transparently serialize geometries based on the Simple Feature specification using Protobuf into binary encoding. The Simple Feature Access Specification is a common standard that is widely used in geoinformatics for exchanging spatial features. This serialization API also supports decoding serialized binary data into prefered output models such as JTS and others. Protocol Buffers is used as the primary serialization framework. Other serialization frameworks, such as Avro, are being considered as well. I am currently implementing serializing support for raster data into the API, where it will utilize raster data formats, such as GeoTIFF, and modeling libraries, such as GeoTools.ommon standard that is widely used in geoinformatics for exchanging spatial features.
