+Pkg-Description: Python implementation of the Web Processing Service standard
+ WPS stands for Web Processing Service and it is a standard OGC (Open
+ Geospatial Consortium) protocol to make GIS calculations/models available
+ to the Internet. In theory WPS should be able to describe any process, run
+ it using pre-defined input/output and report error and status.
+ .
+ WPS supports simultaneous exposure of processes via HTTP GET, HTTP POST and
+ SOAP, thus allowing the client to choose the most appropriate interface
+ mechanism, normally the processes's metadata is gathered using HTTP GET while
+ its execution is done using HTTP POST.
+ .
+ PyWPS is an implementation of this protocol in Python.
