<br>
The PROJ-JNI project has been accepted into the OSGeo Community
program.<br>
<br>
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation is pleased to welcome
PROJ-JNI [1] to our Community program. PROJ-JNI is a project that
exposes Java Native Interface bindings to the PROJ [2] C/C++
library.<br>
<br>
The OSGeo Community program recognizes applications and tools that
are geospatial, freely available with an open source license, and
are setup to collaborate fairly. This program helps OSGeo promote
innovation and the hard work of teams and organizations worldwide.<br>
<br>
About PROJ-JNI<br>
----------------------<br>
PROJ-JNI is a project that exposes Java Native Interface bindings
to the PROJ C/C++ library, the well-known and widely-used
coordinate transformation library that underpins most open-source
geospatial coordinate transformations. This project allows JVM
ecosystem developers to build directly upon recent and future
improvements to PROJ via native bindings, rather than requiring
that libraries separately re-implement all projection and
transformation functionality in JVM languages.<br>
PROJ-JNI currently works with system-installed versions of PROJ,
and is currently looking into the feasibility of simplifying the
end-user experience via pre-compiled native libraries for
different platforms.<br>
<br>
Source code is hosted on GitHub [3], which also contains
documentation, installation, and information about contributing.<br>
<br>
About the Open Source Geospatial Foundation<br>
---------------------------------------------------------------<br>
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation [4] is a not-for-profit
501(c)(4) organization to empower everyone with open source
geospatial. The software foundation directly supports projects
serving as an outreach and advocacy organization providing
financial, organizational and legal support for the open source
geospatial community.<br>
<br>
OSGeo works with GeoCat, OPENGIS.ch, Gaia3D and other sponsors,
along with our partners to foster an open approach to software,
standards, data and education.<br>
