Overview

This RFC proposes a new FDO provider for accessing (spatial) data stored in SQLite database files.

Motivation

SQLite is an efficient and popular way to store data. Support for accessing SQLite databases via FDO would expand the range of data sources supported by FDO.

Proposed Solution

Implications

This is a new provider, so there will be no issues with backwards compatibility.

Test Plan

How the proposed change will be tested, if applicable. New unit tests should be detailed here???
