These capabilities are enabled by a GDAL WebAssembly (WASM) build, eliminating the need for server-side processing or local installations. Building on this foundation, we are now expanding support to raster processing tools, unlocking even more geospatial workflows in JupyterLite and notebook.link. This will enable users to perform complex raster operations entirely client-side, making geospatial analysis more accessible, collaborative, and scalable. diff --git a/src/components/fundable/descriptions/SVE2SupportInXsimd.md b/src/components/fundable/descriptions/SVE2SupportInXsimd.md index 5ddf3da9..9555292c 100644 --- a/src/components/fundable/descriptions/SVE2SupportInXsimd.md +++ b/src/components/fundable/descriptions/SVE2SupportInXsimd.md @@ -1,11 +1,11 @@ #### Overview xsimd is a C++ header-only library that abstracts SIMD (vectorization) intrinsics behind a single, generic API. The same code - `xsimd::batch` - compiles to optimal machine code on x86 SSE/AVX, ARM NEON, RISC-V, and WebAssembly, with no runtime overhead. When an intrinsic is missing on a given target, xsimd falls back gracefully rather than failing or leaving the developer to write platform-specific branches. This is why projects like Mozilla Firefox, Apache Arrow, Meta Velox, KDE Krita, and Pythran have adopted it as their vectorization layer. -Writing SIMD intrinsics by hand is notoriously painful. Each architecture exposes different types, different naming conventions, and different gotchas — alignment rules, predicate registers, lane-width surprises, compiler bugs. Targeting two architectures means two separate, opaque, hard-to-test code paths. xsimd eliminates that cost entirely. +Writing SIMD intrinsics by hand is notoriously painful.
