6ZOO Services are example Web services which work with the ZOO Kernel. They are based on various
7existing Open Source libraries and tend to provide simple Web processing functions such as
8GIS format conversion, GIS file reprojection, basic spatial operations, basic raster operations...

10The available ZOO Services are under development and come without any warranty. They are based
11on existing code and prove that the ZOO Kernel works with many different codes and languages
12(please have a look to the ZOO demos !). The ZOO Project team wants to encourage people to use
13the ZOO Services as a functional basis for Web processing, but above all to provide a source
14of inspiration to the community for creating new ZOO Services.
