[Geojson] OGR GeoJSON Driver

[Mateusz Loskot]

Hi All,

My name is Mateusz Loskot and working mainly for projects like GDAL/OGR,
MOSS4G, GEOS, FDO, PostGIS and lurking around bunch of other great
initiatives. Recently, I got interested in GeoJSON format and services
based on it, as a good candidate for being a lightweight replacement to
OGC WFS, especially accessible from mobile clients.

Yesterday, I announced new OGR driver that implements GeoJSON in
terms of OGR objects model. Here is the whole story:

The driver has been applied to the official GDAL repository:

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/1968

And it will be included in next GDAL 1.5.0 release.

I'd like to send thanks to authors of GeoJSON Specification. Great job!

Cheers
