+ Geometric Engine Open Source provides a spatial object model and
+ fundamental geometric functions. It implements the geometry model
+ defined in the OpenGIS Consortium Simple Features Specification for
+ SQL. Functions provided include: spatial predicates (based on the
+ DE-9IM model), overlay functions (intersection, difference, union,
+ symmetric difference), buffer, convex hull, area and distance
+ functions, and topological validity checking.
