Awesome!

Feel free to lift SedonaDB's Interval and BoundingBox implementation, which is the only one I know about that implements the "wraparound" version of the bounding box we adopted in the spec.

https://github.com/apache/sedona-db/blob/main/rust/sedona-geometry/src/bounding_box.rs

...or if there's a more appropriate place to upstream those I can do that too. (I wrote that code and am happy to do the PR if that's cleaner IP wise).

Makes sense to me -- thank you @kylebarron . I double checked most of the links and they are 👌

A good follow on PR might be to add CI checks for this crate, similar to https://github.com/apache/arrow-rs/blob/main/.github/workflows/parquet-variant.yml

how about naming it parquet-geo to be more inclusive of the geography datatype? i feel like naming it parquet-geometry might mislead others into thinking geography is a special case of geometry rather than them being two distinct types.

[kylebarron]

Or parquet-geospatial to be more descriptive while avoiding the name geometry

We used a geospatial/ subdirectory in C++ 🤷 (I don't really mind, I think folks will get the jist of it 🙂 )

Thanks everyone. Onwards to geospatial support!
