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

New port: graphics/geos implements all OpenGIS "Simple Features for SQL" GEOS (Geometry Engine - Open Source) is a C++ port of the Java Topology Suite (JTS). As such, it aims to contain the complete functionality of JTS in C++. This includes all the OpenGIS "Simple Features for SQL" spatial predicate functions and spatial operators, as well as specific JTS topology functions such as IsValid(). More precisely, GEOS is a library containing functions which implement OpenGIS specifications concerning operations on geometric objects. Despite its categorization in the graphics subdirectory, it is more suitable in a "gis" category for Geographical Information Systems software. I would like to suggest the ports team to create such category because of the so many free software available on the internet. Please, look at www.freegis.org. I am working on porting several of them to make FreeBSD ready-for-GIS. Feel free to contact me for more information.
