+1 to making it work for vector formats too -- geospatial imagery was just the first notch to tackle... :) Cheers, Chris On Feb 26, 2012, at 11:09 AM, Joe White wrote: > Chris, > One other thing occurred to me while looking at this. All of the discussion > I've seen thus far revolves around g

Chris, One other thing occurred to me while looking at this. All of the discussion I've seen thus far revolves around geospatial imagery. Has there been any discussion about using Tika on any of the geospatial vector formats? I would think they would go hand in hand, and OGR recognizes many o

Hi, Chris, I would agree that we probably should come up with a more comprehensive solution for this wrt the metadata object and the resulting XHTML. That would make this feel a little more like the geospatial stuff is more of a first class citizen in the metadata hierarchy. We will probably n

Hi Joe, Awesome! Thanks for picking this up and getting interested in this work. Right now, the only use cases we've had so far is to represent lats and lons (WGS84). It would be great to extract more information and come up with a policy for representing more WKTs and so forth. We should probab

2012-02-26 Thread Joe White
Hi, I'm looking into implementing a bridge/link between Tika and GDAL so that geospatial information can be saved from georeferenced images and vector types. One thing that I have noticed while going through the code is that the code only defines geographic coordinate types, using latitudes and
