# Spatial Interoperability Interface (SII)

The *Spatial Interoperability Interface (SII)* is a modular, C89-compliant interface

suitable for cross-language development, such as with Hourglass interfaces[^1].

> [!IMPORTANT]

> SII is currently under active development, and not suitable for any production work.

A example use-case for this interface could be a GIS application that prefers decoupling the

geospatial engine from its own internal logic. Using SII, the application could load an

engine built in C, C++, Rust, or any other language that can bind to C89, without modifying

the application's code at all.

## Structure

The SII is separated into modules based on a few different factors:

- Model

    - Vector

    - Raster

    - Attribute

- Algorithm

## License

SII is distributed under the [Boost Software License Version 1.0](LICENSE).
