Introduction
GeoAlchemy is an extension of SQLAlchemy. It provides support for
Geospatial data types at the ORM layer using SQLAlchemy. It aims to
support spatial operations and relations specified by the Open Geospatial
Consortium (OGC). The project started under Google Summer of Code Program
under the mentorship of Mark Ramm-Christensen.
