OSGeo is pleased to announce that ZOO-Project has graduated from
incubation and is now a full-fledged OSGeo project. Gérald Fenoy,
founder and chair of the ZOO-Project Steering Committee (PSC), has
been appointed as project officer.
ZOO-Project is an open-source platform for implementing and
developing efficient tools for processing geospatial and
non-geospatial data based on the OGC standards.
Graduatingincubation
<https://www.osgeo.org/about/committees/incubation> includes
fulfilling requirements for open community operation, a
responsible project governance model, code provenance, and general
good project operation. Graduation is the OSGeo seal of approval
for a project and gives potential users and the community at large
an added confidence in the viability and safety of the project.
The ZOO-Project Steering Committee collectively recognizes this as
a big progressive step for the project. ZOO-Project has been an
active contributor to various open source initiatives inside and
outside OSGeo such as FOSS4G, OSGeo Code Sprints, OGC Code
Sprints, Joint OSGeo-OGC-ASF (Apache Software Foundation) Code
Sprints, Google Summer of Code. The ZOO-Project PSC says, “/We are
excited about the future of the project and have been working
towards the incubation approval for a long time. It is our honor
to be an OSGeo incubated project”./
OSGeo and ZOO-Project would like to thank Tom Kralidis, Dimitris
Kotzinos, Frank Warmerdam, and the OSGeo Incubation Committee for
their assistance during this Incubation process.
Congratulations to the ZOO-Project community!
About ZOO-Project
ZOO-Project is a Web Processing Service (WPS) implementation
written in C, Python and JavaScript. It is an open source platform
which implements the WPS 1.0.0, WPS 2.0.0, and OGC API – Processes
– Part 1: Core standards edited by the Open Geospatial Consortium
(OGC). It provides a developer-friendly framework for creating and
chaining WPS compliant Web Services. Additionally, it offers
efficient tools for creating new innovative web services and
applications.
ZOO-Project is able to process geospatial or non geospatial data
online. Its core processing engine (aka ZOO-Kernel) lets you
execute a number of existing ZOO-Services based on reliable
software and libraries. It also gives you the ability to create
your own WPS Services from new or existing source code, which can
be written in seven different programming languages. That allows
you to compose or turn code as WPS Services simply, with
straightforward configuration and standard coding methods.
ZOO-Project is very flexible with data input and output so you can
process almost any kind of data stored locally or accessed from
remote servers and databases. ZOO-Project excels in data
processing and integrates new or existing spatial data
infrastructures, as it is able to communicate with map servers and
can integrate webmapping clients.
About OSGeo
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) is a not-for-profit
organization whose mission is to foster global adoption of open
geospatial technology by being an inclusive software foundation
devoted to an open philosophy and participatory community driven
development.
The Foundation provides financial, organizational and legal
support to the broader open source geospatial community. It also
serves as an independent legal entity to which community members
can contribute code, funding and other resources, secure in the
knowledge that their contributions will be maintained for public
benefit. OSGeo also serves as an outreach and advocacy
organization for the open source geospatial community, and
provides a common forum and shared infrastructure for improving
cross-project collaboration.
