Hey,
I'm looking for a PHP librarie that contains classes to represent geographical entities such as points, area's, routes, ect. It'd be used in the Maps extension to handle the logic between wikitext and mapping service JavaScript (and other output). I can go write this myself, but being able to use a library would be a lot more convenient. Anyone on this list know of such a library, or how I might find one?
Cheers

Hi
I usually do all the math, filtering, etc. in postgis and use php only as input/output bridge between the database logic and the web.
Which operations would you like to perform with this lib in php?

Hey,

Nothing much. The main purpose is to simply represent the geographical entities, not to manipulate them.
The Maps extension basically just translates wikitext to mapping service JavaScript, with the PHP in between for validation and the logic needed to figure out what JS is needed. Some manipulations are done of course, but that's not the point here.
