Hi all,

I'm planning to submit a new driver for accessing Walk files, a geospatial
data format developed  by Walkinfo Tech. mainly for land surveying,
evaluation, planning, checking and data analysis in China.

Walkinfo Tech. is a China-based company founded since 1999, origignally
focused on land surveying software research and development. Currently we
have our own geographic information platform WalkGIS, as well as scores of
GIS desktop, mobile products based on it, including WalkISurvey,
WalkISurface, WalkCheck, WalkFu and so on. The company is also the largest
strategic partner with Esri ArcGIS in China.

The WalkGIS applications use GDAL/OGR as part of its base libaries. The
purpose of developing the Walk driver on GDAL/OGR is to allow other GIS
products such as ArcGIS to access our data more easily and conveniently.

The driver I am working on is already able to get the information such as
layers, features, geometries, and spatial references from Walk files. Can I
get the permission to submit it to GDAL project and share it with other GDAL
developers?


Best Regards,
Xian
