Overview
dart_jts is a Dart port of the Java Topology Suite (JTS), providing robust geometric operations for spatial data. It enables developers to perform complex vector geometry calculations—such as intersections, unions, and buffering—across mobile, desktop, and web platforms. Designed for accuracy and performance, it supports standard GIS operations in Dart applications. The package is ideal for mapping, geospatial analysis, and location-based services requiring precise geometric logic.
