Explore the development of GeometryOps.jl, a comprehensive native geometry package for Julia, in this 11-minute conference talk. Discover how this project aims to unify disparate packages and algorithms for geometric calculations while ensuring GeoInterface.jl compatibility. Learn about the package's potential to replace LibGEOS.jl and its substantial performance improvements when using native geometry objects. Gain insights into the challenges faced by Julia's Geo and Geometry ecosystems, including the lack of a comprehensive native package for standard geometric algorithms and the performance drawbacks of existing C library wrappers. Understand the benefits of creating a unified approach to geometric computations in Julia and how GeometryOps.jl addresses the limitations of current solutions.
