geoc Commandline Application

geoc is a geospatial command line application that follows the unix philosophy. Each command does one thing well (buffer a layer, crop a raster) by reading a vector layer as a CSV text stream or a raster layer as an ASCII grid, processing the layer or raster, and then writing out the vector layer as a CSV or a raster layer as an ASCII grid. Individual commands can be chained together with unix pipes.

geoc is very much under development (command names may change). Originally is was developed as a complement to geometry commands and to stress test GeoScript Groovy. The commands have not been optimized for large datasets.

geoc is built on the shoulders of giants: GeoTools and the Java Topology Suite. geoc just provides a command line application that wraps the herculean effort that the developers of these two libraries have undertaken.
