## Requirements

Minimum required PHP version is 8.1. *phpgeo* is tested up to PHP 8.3.
Minimum required PHP version is 8.2. *phpgeo* is tested up to PHP 8.4.

New features will only go into the main branch and won't be backported.

It's possible to install older versions of *phpgeo* for older PHP versions.

*phpgeo* has some breaking changes in the 6.x release line. Please refer to the following list to see what has changed
and what you need to do to upgrade your code.

| Change | Description | Action |

| `Line`, `Polygon`, and `Polyline` classes are now implementing a new interface | `GeometryLinesInterface` provides the `getSegments()` method. | There's no need to change anything if you don't extend those classes. |
| `getBounds()` method was added to `GeometryInterface` | | Ensure your class has a `getBounds()` method if you implement `GeometryInterface` |
| removed support for PHP 8.1 | Older PHP versions are no longer supported. | Upgrade to at least PHP 8.2 or keep using phpgeo 5.x |

### Simplifying a polyline

Polylines can be simplified to save storage space or bandwidth. Simplification is done with the [Ramer–Douglas–Peucker algorithm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramer–Douglas–Peucker_algorithm) (AKA Douglas-Peucker algorithm).
