4 years ago It might be possible to add in data from the Unihand database too.

The purpose for this repository was to type Japanese without knowing how the characters (kanji's) pronounce. For most Japanese IMEs, characters or words are coded according to their sounds (音码), rather than the shapes (形码), which makes them unfriendly for Japanese beginners. I used to have to type new words to look for their meanings online, so I combined the Japanese character set and the 4 Corner system codes and made this, since that system may be the easiest character shape coding method. In fact, this table was a component of a customized Japanese IME.
The original database of the 4 Corner system, a beautiful work from wangyanhan, can be found here: http://bbs.unispim.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=31674 which already covered most (if not all) CJK characters in Unicode.
In another repository called tetragonos, the full database of the 4 Corner system, in the format of LaTeX macros though, can be found as tetragonos-database.def.
