GDAL (Geospatial Data Abstraction Library) is an open-source software library for reading, writing, and translating raster and vector geospatial data formats, widely used by GIS developers, data scientists, and cartographers. It underpins many geospatial tools and platforms, including QGIS and various Python geospatial libraries, by providing a common interface to hundreds of file formats.
