[Lexicon] GDAL Documentation Glossary

[Nick Bearman]

Great to see some interest in this Seth, and thanks for the links and 
background Cameron.

This was my attempt at R / GIS glossary, 
https://github.com/nickbearman/intro-r-spatial-analysis/blob/main/glossary.tex, 
PDF at 
https://github.com/nickbearman/intro-r-spatial-analysis/releases/download/v10/glossary.pdf.

If you are picking this up I'll be interested to see how you get on.

Best wishes,
Nick.
