## Description: The mission of Apache Sedona is the creation and maintenance of software related to a big geospatial data processing engine. It provides an easy to use APIs for spatial data scientists to manage, wrangle, and process geospatial data ## Project Status: Current project status: Ongoing Issues for the board: No issues so far ## Membership Data: Apache Sedona was founded 2022-12-20 (8 months ago) There are currently 17 committers and 17 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 1:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members. Last addition was Kristin Cowalcijk on 2023-04-04. - No new committers. Last addition was Kristin Cowalcijk on 2023-04-05. ## Project Activity: We release Sedona 1.4.1 on June 24 2023. Our current release cadence is about 1 release per 3 month and a major release (with potential API changes) every 6 month. In terms of project development, in the past quarter, Sedona received over 200 PRs which is 60% increase. ## Community Health: Our community is pretty healthy. In terms of adoption, our monthly downloads have exceed 1M and overall downloads have exceed 18M. In terms of contributors, our total number of contributors is now 107.
## Description: The mission of Apache Sedona is the creation and maintenance of software related to a big geospatial data processing engine. It provides an easy to use APIs for spatial data scientists to manage, wrangle, and process geospatial data ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention ## Membership Data: Apache Sedona was founded 2022-12-20 (5 months ago) There are currently 17 committers and 17 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 1:1. Community changes, past quarter: - Kristin Cowalcijk was added to the PMC on 2023-04-04 - Kristin Cowalcijk was added as committer on 2023-04-05 ## Project Activity: We released Sedona 1.4.0 on 03/19. 1.4.0 is the first release since Sedona became a top level project and includes many existing features such as native GeoParquet support and fast serializer. We are now working towards the next maintenance release 1.4.1 and the major release 1.5.0. Our goal in the next few releases is to refactor Sedona to a unified structure which adds comprehensive geospatial analytics support to many big data engines including Snowflake, BigQueries and so on. ## Community Health: The community is pretty healthy in general. But we do observed a significant decrease on new JIRA tickets. This is mainly because the infra team has disabled the self-signup of JIRAs. We also need to attract more contributors to Sedona.
## Description: The mission of Apache Sedona is the creation and maintenance of software related to a big geospatial data processing engine. It provides an easy to use APIs for spatial data scientists to manage, wrangle, and process geospatial data ## Issues: Currently, we don't have any issues. We are aware of the discussion of potential naming and branding issues of Apache Sedona. ## Membership Data: Apache Sedona was founded 2022-12-20 (3 months ago) There are currently 16 committers and 16 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 1:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members (project graduated recently). - No new committers were added. ## Project Activity: 1. We plan to release Sedona 1.4.0 in one week. 2. Since the last report, the community spent lots of efforts on Sedona R binding improvement. The previous main contributor of Sedona R is no longer active and a new community member takes over and puts lots of efforts here. 3. The community also spent efforts on fixing the styling and doc errors. This will make the entire source code easy to read and maintain. ## Community Health: I cannot see the community health metrics due to some unknown reasons. Anyway, I collected the statistics myself. We have 8 active contributors made 37 commits to the Sedona repo. We have lots of activities on our mailing list, JIRA tickets and GitHub issues. In total, we had around 150 messages over all these channels.
## Description: Apache Sedona is a cluster computing system for processing large-scale spatial data. Sedona extends existing cluster computing systems, such as Apache Spark and Apache Flink, with a set of out-of-the-box distributed Spatial Datasets and Spatial SQL that efficiently load, process, and analyze large-scale spatial data across machines. ## Issues: There are no issues requiring board attention ## Membership Data: Apache Sedona was founded 2022-12-20 (a month ago) There are currently 16 committers and 16 PMC members in this project. The Committer-to-PMC ratio is 1:1. Community changes, past quarter: - No new PMC members (project graduated recently). - No new committers were added. ## Project Activity: The community recently implemented or is implementing a few important features that will significantly improve the performance and adoption of Sedona. 1. Full GeoParquet format support. Sedona now can read / write GeoParquet files in GeoParquet Standard 1.0.0. It also supports the important filter pushdown function for GeoParquet. 2. H3 and S2 indexing support. With this implementation, Sedona might have better spatial join performance in some cases. This will also make it possible to support spatial join in streaming environments. ## Community Health: Overall the community is healthy. The mailing list is active and commits and PRs are normal. However, since ASF JIRA no longer allows self-signup, we observed a significant decline on issue reporting. Lots of new users of Sedona usually create tickets on JIRA but now they have to ask Sedona PMC to create an account first, which might discourage them to participate. Therefore, Sedona recently re-enabled the GitHub issue function. Let's see if this can help.

### How has the community developed since the last report?
The community has been active in the past month. We have received emails
and Gitter chats from many users. The GitHub repo also received more
stars.
However, we notice that, since we close the "Issues" function on GitHub,
many users seem not to post questions to JIRA and mailing list. Some of
them chose to send emails directly to the committers. We would like to
figure out a way to guide the users to the right channel.
### How has the project developed since the last report?
Since the last report, we have published our new project website under the
Apache domain: http://sedona.apache.org/
We have almost finished our first big PR under the new name, Sedona:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-sedona/pull/484
The development progress was kind of blocked by this PR. We believe once
this PR is accepted, we will move much faster.

### How has the community developed since the last report?
The community has been active since the last report. We have started to
use the mailing list to exchange ideas of different development issues in
Sedona. Several contributors, users and committers have joined the
discussion on the mailing list dev@
It is also worth noting that we are still working on importing the code
into the incubator ASF GitHub repo. It took us several weeks to collect
CLAs and SGAs from the major participating parties. I believe we have
collected sufficient evidence to prove that the artifact is ready to be
imported and the secretary has confirmed the CLA and SGA. We just created
a JIRA ticket for the infra team and are waiting for them to import our
codebase into ASF GitHub:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20786
### How has the project developed since the last report?
The project made a good progress. In the past month, we accepted several
patches from Kengo Seki and Sachio Wakai. In the meantime, Committer
Netanel is working on a large PR to replace a 3rd party dependency
JTSplus with JTS in order to improve the performance. Committer Pawel is
working on another large PR to carry out the Sedona Python support for
Spark 3.0.

The last time when we added committers or PPMC is July 2020. It is when
we submitted our proposal.
### Have your mentors been helpful and responsive?
Are things falling through the cracks? If so, please list any
open issues that need to be addressed.
Yes, mentors are very helpful throughout the process. We exchanged many
emails recently to solve the CLA and SGA issues.
### Is the PPMC managing the podling's brand / trademarks?
Are 3rd parties respecting and correctly using the podlings
name and brand? If not what actions has the PPMC taken to
correct this? Has the VP, Brand approved the project name?
We haven't seen any ongoing issues regarding this matter.

Good progress on bootstrap, LDAP and DNS created, JIRA created, git repo
created, mailing lists created.
5 PPMC CLA submitted, account created and added to the roster of Sedona.
We have removed all incompatible 3rd party library dependencies in the
old codebase.
Now we are waiting for another committer to submit the CLA and then the
code will be imported to ASF Git repo.
