MetaCRS简介

Background

MetaCRSis a project encompassing several projections, and coordinate system related technologies. Our plan is to treat a variety of coordinate system activities as one Project from an OSGeo point of view. This helps provide enough "project mass" to justify the full OSGeo project treatment. But more importantly it would give us a forum to cooperate. Sharing things like coordinate system dictionaries, test suites and mathematical formulations.

Project Steering Committee

The project steering committee consists of the following individuals and operates according to the MetaCRS PSC procedures.

Frank Warmerdam (chair)
Hugues Wisniewski
Norm Olson
Mike Adair
Howard Butler
Martin Davis

Sub-projects

The following are sub-projects of MetaCRS:

PROJ.4 - lead - Frank Warmerdam

Commiters

Commiters are technically able to commit on any part of MetaCRS but traditionally they have sub-projects on which they focus, and they will avoid commits on other sub-projects without discussion with the project lead. New commiters may be added after a vote of the PSC.
