------------------------------------------------
Hi,
I am a final year Computer Science and Engineering undergraduate at University
of Moratuwa. I would like to work with Apache AsterixDB for this year's GSoC. I
am familiar with JSON and I have contributed to Apache VXQuery during last
year's GSoC where I was involved with the issue VXQUERY-178 to support JSONiq
for VXQuery.
I have currently set up AsterixDB as in [1] and am attempting to familiarize
with the code base and am looking into GeoJSON format. Please kindly help me
get started with the task and to prepare a good proposal by directing me to
beginner issues that I can try fixing or things I should be learning to
understand the project better.
Thank you.

> We current support point, polygon, circle, and rectangle. The GIS world has
> more data shapes as described in [Well-know
> text|https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Well-known_text].
> [PostGIS|http://postgis.net/docs/manual-2.2/using_postgis_dbmanagement.html#RefObject]
> is also a good referecne. It will be very nice we can support all standard
> spatial object internally and can parse/format the spatial object in a
> "well-known" way. e.g. well-know format or [geojson|http://geojson.org/]
> format
