---------------------------------------
Summary: Provide a HEIF data store
Key: SIS-636
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-636
Project: Spatial Information Systems
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Storage
Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
Assignee: Martin Desruisseaux
Fix For: 1.7
Add a {{DataStore}} implementation for the GeoHEIF format. This reader already
exists in the "incubator" group of modules of Apache SIS for approximately 2
years [2]. GeoHEIF is a proposed geospatial extension of the HEIF format, like
GeoTIFF is an extension of TIFF. While HEIF is an international standard,
GeoHEIF is not yet a standard. But an OGC working group has been created for
GeoHEIF and a draft of what may be the GeoHEIF standard is already published as
an [OGC Testbed report|https://docs.ogc.org/per/24-038r1.html]. While GeoHEIF
is not yet standard, the "Geo" part is a very small part of that module. The
vast majority of the code is for reading the HEIF part, and that part is
standardized. The "Geo" part will be easy to change if the OGC GeoHEIF Standard
Working Group decides to do something different than the above-cited
engineering report.
