GEOS (Geometry Engine - Open Source) is a C++ port of the Java Topology Suite (JTS). As such, it aims to contain the complete functionality of JTS in C++. This includes all the OpenGIS "Simple Features for SQL" spatial predicate functions and spatial operators, as well as specific JTS topology functions such as IsValid(). More precisely, GEOS is a library containing functions which implement OpenGIS specifications concerning operations on geometric objects. Despite its categorization in the graphics subdirectory, it is more suitable in a "gis" category for Geographical Information Systems software. I would like to suggest the ports team to create such category because of the so many free software available on the internet. Please, look at www.freegis.org. I am working on porting several of them to make FreeBSD ready-for-GIS. Feel free to contact me for more information. PR: ports/60405 Submitted by: Leonardo Martins <lmartins@nepe.eee.ufg.br>
