GeoAPI provides a set of Java and Python language programming interfaces for geospatial applications. The interfaces developed by the GeoAPI project include data structures and manipulation methods needed for geographic information system applications. The GeoAPI interfaces closely follow the abstract models and concrete specifications published collaboratively by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in its 19100 series of documents and the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) in its abstract and implementation standards.
The current release is GeoAPI 3.0.2, published as an Open Geospatial Consortium standard and available on Maven Central. Development branches on GitHub are "3.1" for GeoAPI 3.1 (backward compatible with GeoAPI 3.0) and "master" for GeoAPI 4.0. The main sub-directories are:
See the wiki page for the roadmap and completion status.
GeoAPI development branches require Java 18 and Maven 3 for building, but the compilation result can be run on Java 11. The GeoAPI 3.0 stable release requires only Java 8.
