<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Graduating<a
href="https://www.osgeo.org/about/committees/incubation"
target="_blank" moz-do-not-send="true">
incubation</a> 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.</p>
<p>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, “<i>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”.</i></p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>Congratulations to the ZOO-Project community!</p>

<p>About ZOO-Project</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>

<p>About OSGeo</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>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.</p>
