Respected mentors I am Alan John, a B.Tech student of IIT Bombay. The project on GIS enhancements captured my attention. As I read more about the Geographic Information System, I found it exciting and the different methods used for representing geographical features was a new knowledge for me. As I researched more I found that there are various formats for storing the information on maps and I realized the importance of this project i.e. to convert from one format to other without losing essential information and features. I am proficient in c, python and I have worked with mysql. Mariadb is new for me but I am confident of learning it in a few weeks. Please guide me through the project. I couldn’t find any prior discussion on this topic, if there is any, can somebody share a link with me. I would love to work hard on this project under the guidance of the mentors. Thank you
