\htmlonlyGDAL\endhtmlonly \latexonly GDAL/OGR \endlatexonly is a translator library for raster and vector geospatial data formats that is released under an X/MIT style Open Source license by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation. As a library, it presents a \link gdal_datamodel.html single raster abstract data model\endlink and \link ogr_arch.html single vector abstract data model\endlink to the calling application for all supported formats. It also comes with a variety of useful command line utilities for data translation and processing. The NEWS page describes the March 2018 GDAL/OGR 2.2.4 release. \htmlonlyOSGeo project\endhtmlonly
Traditionally GDAL used to design the raster part of the library, and OGR the vector part for Simple Features. Starting with GDAL 2.0, both sides have been more tightly integrated. You can still refer to the documentation of GDAL 1.X if needed. Master: http://www.gdal.org

\endhtmlonly \section index_maillist Mailing List A gdal-announce mailing list subscription is a low volume way of keeping track of major developments with the GDAL/OGR project. The gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org mailing list can be used for discussion of development and user issues related to GDAL and related technologies. Subscriptions can be done, and archives reviewed on the web. The mailing list is also available in read-only format by NNTP at news://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.gdal.devel. Archives since 2005 are searchable on Nabble.

Some GDAL/OGR users and developers can also often be found in the \#gdal IRC channel on irc.freenode.net.
