# GEOS - Geometry Engine Open Source

### 3.0.0

## Introduction

Geometry Engine Open Source is a C++ port of the Java Topology Suite released under the LGPL license. It has interfaces for C++, C and python (though swig).

## Getting Started

The recommended low-level interface to the GEOS library is the simplified C wrapper interface. This will ensure stability of the API and the ABI of the library during performance improvements that will likely change classes definitions.

If you prefer troubles you can use the C++ interface.
