Description-en: Geospatial Data Abstraction Library - Transitional package
GDAL is a translator library for raster geospatial data formats.
As a library, it presents a single abstract data model to the
calling application for all supported formats. The related OGR
library (which lives within the GDAL source tree) provides
a similar capability for simple features vector data.
.
GDAL supports many popular data formats, including commonly used
ones (GeoTIFF, JPEG, PNG and more) as well as the ones used in
GIS and remote sensing software packages (ERDAS Imagine,
ESRI Arc/Info, ENVI, PCI Geomatics). Also supported many remote
sensing and scientific data distribution formats such as HDF,
EOS FAST, NOAA L1B, NetCDF, FITS.
.
OGR library supports popular vector formats like ESRI Shapefile,
TIGER data, S57, MapInfo File, DGN, GML and more.
.
This is a transitional dummy package that depends on libgdal-dev
and is used to allow versioned build dependencies to work in
any build environment.
