geoarrow-rs

A Rust implementation and Python and JavaScript (WebAssembly) bindings of the GeoArrow memory specification for efficiently storing geospatial vector geometries, connected to geospatial algorithms implemented by the GeoRust community.

Motivation

GeoArrow provides a way to share geospatial vector data between programs at no cost and without copies, so that an ecosystem of libraries can share data without serialization overhead. Removing this overhead enables faster code in high-level, interpreted languages such as Python and JavaScript.
