Geo libraries

Heroku buildpack: geo

This is a Heroku buildpack that vendors main geo/gis libraries like geos, proj and gdal.

It is meant to be used in conjunction with other buildpacks as part of a multi-buildpack.

Usage

Example usage:

$ heroku config:add BUILDPACK_URL=https://github.com/ddollar/heroku-buildpack-multi.git

$ cat .buildpacks
https://github.com/cyberdelia/heroku-geo-buildpack.git#1.3
https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-ruby.git#v129

Don't forget to pin buildpack versions you want to use in your .buildpacks file.
