Hi Guys, I'll be at FOSS4GNA, and just submitted a 30 min abstract for SIS.
Abstract -------- The talk will cover the history, motivation, goals, current status and future work for the Apache Spatial Information System (SIS) project. SIS is a top level project at the Apache Software Foundation (ASF), the world's largest open source foundation and the home to over 3500 contributors, 400 members, and 100+ of the most downloaded projects in the world including Apache HTTPD, Apache Hadoop, Apache Lucene/Solr, Apache Tika and other projects. The goals of Apache SIS are to provide an ALv2 licensed Java toolkit and API that developers can leverage to build spatial information systems. This includes support for different coordinate reference systems; support for spatial querying; support for geometry and transformations and data representation of spatial data. SIS currently is aiming to be a reference implementation of the OGC Geo API 3.x standard. The project has undergone successful incubation at the ASF, having made 2 releases, and we are working towards a 0.3 release that includes support for ISO-19115 metadata, ISO-19103 Conceptual schema language, and working towards ISO-19111 spatial referencing. SIS is also in the midst of a large contribution and assimilation of the GeoTK project, bringing it incrementally and in a community oriented fashion to the ASF. This is being led by Martin Desruisseaux. -------- We'll see if it gets in!
