arcgrid plugin	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	Read the ArcGrid raster format.
arcsde plugin	Lead: Gabriel Roldan	Support for ARCSDE is one of the great features of geotools, you will need to download some jars from ESRI but after that you are in the clear.

cql	Lead: Mauricio Pazos	The CQL module captures the "constraint query language" format for filters. This syntax is used by OGC standards such as the catalog specification.
data	Lead: Jody Garnett	ContentDataStore implementation and support classes for those implementing their own datastore.
docs	Lead: Jody Garnett	GeoTools has many documentation needs, doc requests go here - and this is focused at the user level.
efeature	Lead: Kenneth Gulbrands�y	The EFeature DataStore module adds support for spatial read and write operations to EMF models.
feature-pregeneralized plugin	Lead: Christian Mueller	A wrapping datastore taking one or more base datastores providing the same features with increasingly generalized geometries and showing them as a single entity, with the ability to choose the proper level of generalization based on query hints
geojson	Lead: Justin Deoliveira
geometry		Bugs in both our JTS use and our own implementations of the ISO geometry interfaces.
geotiff	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	GridCoverage implementation of GeoTiff.
graph extension	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	graphing packaged based on spatial relationships, contains query system based on walkers. Walkers can take visitors along for the ride.
grass-raster plugin	Lead: Andrea Antonello	Support for grass raster format.
gtopo30 plugin	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	Reads the GTOPO30 DEM format
image plugin	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	The gt-image module supplies a grid coverage reader for the world plus image file format consisting of a plain image file and a side car world file and projection file.
imageio-ext-gdal plugin	Lead: Daniele Romagnoli	Wrapper around the ImageIO Ext library that provides access, among others, to the native GDAL capabilities
imagemosaic plugin	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	A module to seamlessy manage mosaics of 2D very high resolution rasters
imagemosaic-jdbc plugin	Lead: Christian Mueller	An image moasic plugin that makes use of a JDBC database to track component images.
imagepyramid plugin	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	A module to seamlessy manage pyramids of 2D very high resolution rasters
jdbc	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	Contains support classes for the creation of JDBC datastores.
jdbc-db2 plugin	Lead: David Adler	Support for IBM DB2 with spatial extensions.
jdbc-h2 plugin	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	DataStore for H2 Database.
jdbc-mysql plugin	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	DataStore for MySQL Database.
jdbc-oracle plugin	Lead: Andrea Aime	The oracle spatial support in geotools is based around use of the oracle driver (which must be downloaded by hand), you will find we have created a dummy jar allowing the build to work in the mean time.
jdbc-postgis plugin	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	PostGIS is an extention of the postgres open source database to encompass spatial constructs. Currently limited to SFSQL, there is always talk of topology, raster and ISO multimedia spatial types - it is open source help make it happen.
jdbc-spatialite plugin	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	Plugin for SpatiaLite
jdbc-sqlserver plugin	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	Microsoft SQL Server plugin.
jdbc-teradata plugin	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	Plugin for Teradata
jp2k	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	Support for jpeg 2000
jp2k plugin	Lead: Daniele Romagnoli	Plugin allowing geotools to work with jpeg 2000 files; requires imageio-ext to function.
jts-wrapper		ISO Geometry implementation build as a wrapper around JTS objects.
main	Lead: Jody Garnett	Provides default implementations for the constructs declared in the gt-api and gt-opengis modules.
mark-wkt	Lead: Luca Morandini	Supports definition of SLD Marks using well known text geometry.
metadata	Lead: Jody Garnett	Implementaions of ISO metadata interfaces and some core utility classes.
opengis	Lead: Jody Garnett	Interfaces capturing the core data model used by the GeoTools library.
postgis-versioning plugin	Lead: Andrea Aime	A datastore that adds versioning capabilities (Subversion like) to the Postgis data store
process	Lead: Andrea Aime	Support for definition of processing operations
property plugin	Lead: Jody Garnett	PropertyData store was orgionally written as a demo; due to its strict conformance and light weight it is now supported in its own right.
referencing	Lead: Andrea Aime	Contains implementations of Coordinate Reference Systems (CRS), conversion and transformation services.
referencing3D	Lead: Simone Giannecchini	Transforms coordinates from "heights above the ellipsoid" to "heights above the geoid". This module provides the algorithms from an Earth Gravitational Model as a MathTransform implementation. Installing the JAR on the classpath should be suffisient for making vertical transformations available to an application like any other transforms.
render	Lead: Andrea Aime	Holds the default implementation of styling classes and GTRender interface.
sample-data		Contains sample data other other test support classes use for quality assurance in the geotools library.
shapefile plugin	Lead: Andrea Aime	DataStore supporting the ESRI shapefile format.
shapefile-render extension	Lead: Andrea Aime	Jesse has an optimized version of a renderer specifically for playing with shapefiles.
svg plugin	Lead: Andrea Aime	Plugin allowing gt-render to draw scalar vector graphic symbols.
swing	Lead: Michael Bedward	The swing module is currently in unsupported, its short term goals are to support the demo/example module and offer a visual guide when learning to use the GeoTools library. Long term we would like to recruit additional community members. It has swing widgets that can be used to show a map, image or shapefile, and some example wizards for connecting to datastores.
unsupported		Catch all for reporting issues against unsupported modules.
validation extension	Lead: Jody Garnett	Validation module able to perform transaction commit time checks against a data repository.
vpf plugin
wfs plugin	Lead: Gabriel Roldan	WFS access via the datastore API, a good fit as the datastore api was designed to help GeoServer access data. This implementation requires all modification to take place in a transaction.
wms extension	Lead: Jody Garnett	This extention builds on the geotools library to provide support for accesing web map servers.
wps	Lead: Jody Garnett	Web Processing Service client
xml	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	Classes supporting the use of XML based formats in the GeoTools library. Covers three parsers based on a range of technologies: SAX, DOM and GTXML.
xsd extensions	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	The new style xml parser/encoder based on dynamic bindings; this is used as a placeholder for any of the xsd extensions.
xsd-gml	Lead: Justin Deoliveira	Used to report issues with respect to GeoTools GML support. gt-xsd-gml2 plugin gt-xsd-gml3 plugin net.opengis.wfs extension
