[vtkusers] Deprecate vtkGeo* classes (Sankhesh Jhaveri)

[Andrew Maclean]

Sankesh, for your information,.

With respect to VTKExamples.
In looking at C++ examples,
https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/Coverage/CxxVTKClassesUsed/ I
can only see vtkGeoAssignCoordinates being used in
https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/Cxx/Geovis/GeoAssignCoordinates/
and vtkGeoGraticule, vtkGeoProjection, vtkGeoTransform used in
https://lorensen.github.io/VTKExamples/site/Cxx/Geovis/GeoGraticle/

Nothing in the Python examples.

So, in my opinion, deprecation would be appropriate if there are no
users/maintainers.

Regards
   Andrew

> Folks,

> There have been some discussions about deprecating a bunch of classes from

> and maintainers. The tentative list of classes to be deprecated is as
> follows:
>
>    - vtkGeoAdaptiveArcs
>    - vtkGeoAlignedImageRepresentation
>    - vtkGeoAlignedImageSource
>    - vtkGeoAssignCoordinates
>    - vtkGeoFileImageSource
>    - vtkGeoFileTerrainSource
>    - vtkGeoGlobeSource
>    - vtkGeoGraticule
>    - vtkGeoImageNode
>    - vtkGeoRandomGraphSource
>    - vtkGeoSampleArcs
>    - vtkGeoSource
>    - vtkGeoTerrain
>    - vtkGeoTerrain2D
>    - vtkGeoTerrainNode
>    - vtkGeoTreeNode
>    - vtkGeoTreeNodeCache
>    - vtkGeoView
>    - vtkGeoView2D
>
> The primary reason for deprecation is lack of known users and maintainers.
> Please reply to this email if you use these classes and intend to maintain
> them or if you think they shouldn’t be deprecated.

> Thank you!
