[OSGeo-Discuss] Geomajas Geometry Project

2011-07-13 Thread Pieter De Graef
Hi everyone, for the Geomajas project, we are looking into separating the Geometry functionality into an independent project. In other words, I am talking about a Geometry project for the Web. This code would be written in Java for GWT and thus be available on Java backends as well as client

Hi Pieter, this may not directly answer your question, but you could use the existing JSTS library: https://github.com/bjornharrtell/jsts - this is basically a port of the Java Topology Suite. The advantage would be that you don't need a JS wrapper - you could use JTS on the server and JSTS on

Thanks for the tip. Basically I'm looking to make advantage of the GWT by having a single API that I can use on both client and server. We could indeed have 2 implementations (one using JTS one using JSTS), but what I'm mainly looking for, is what model should the API ideally follow. 2011/7/13

Hi Jody, that's the GeoApi specification no? At first we would be using it on the GWT client we where hoping to also include curves, as those can be directly drawn in SVG/VML. At a later stage we could switch the backend to make use of it as well. Jody, you have been looking into creating you

Pieter, I agree with Jody. I'm seeing increasing demand for clients that can utilise vector data constrained by an application schema. Europe is probably most advanced in this work with Inspire. In Australia we have a lot of work currently at research and at implementation stage trying to
