LocationTech GeoGig is a Distributed Version Control System (DVCS) specially designed to handle geospatial data efficiently. It takes inspiration from the source code versioning system Git, but has an approach suited to the spatial data it manages. GeoGig efficiently handles very large binary data, divided up into features with the opportunity to optimise spatial operations using a spatial index. This is in contrast to Git which handles large text data, divided up into lines.

The core LocationTech GeoTrellis framework provides an ability to process large and small data sets with low latency by distributing the computation across multiple threads, cores, CPUs and machines.  The software includes the ability to rapidly process and distribute processing of raster data as well as data import and conversion tools for the ARG data structure.

LocationTech GeoMesa is an Apache licensed open source suite of tools that enables large-scale geospatial analytics on cloud and distributed computing systems, letting you manage and analyze the huge spatio-temporal datasets that IoT, social media, tracking, and mobile phone applications seek to take advantage of today.

The LocationTech JTS Topology Suite (JTS) is an open source Java software library that provides an object model for planar geometry together with a set of fundamental geometric functions.

LocationTech Proj4J is a Java port of the widely used Proj.4 library for coordinate reprojection.  While Proj.4 is widely used and battle-tested, some projects benefit from a pure-Java impleme

LocationTech RasterFrames brings the power of Spark DataFrames to geospatial raster data, empowered by the map algebra and tile layer operations of GeoTrellis.
