<div dir="ltr"><div>My nephew Julian, who is currently a civil engineering student working at a GIS internship for my company, has submitted an application under the Google Summer of Code umbrella.</div><div> </div><div>His proposal is for the development of a low-level Java API for surface model (TIN) data. As part of the project we would define a standard text file format for TIN data and breaklines, provide a reader/writer for that file format, a builder to construct TIN models from JTS input geometries, and (if time allows) some basic analysis capabilities.</div>
<div> </div><div>I've agreed to serve as Julian's mentor for this project, and I've bounced the project idea of the GeoTools developer's mailing list.</div><div> </div><div>Please let me know if you have any questions.</div>
<div> </div><div>Thanks.</div><div> </div><div>Landon</div></div>
