# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

geos: GEOS (Geometry Engine - Open Source) is a C++ port of the Java
geos: Topology Suite (JTS).  As such, it aims to contain the complete
geos: functionality of JTS in C++.  This includes all the OpenGIS
geos: "Simple Features for SQL" spatial predicate functions and spatial
