-Doctrine2 multi-platform support for spatial types and functions. Currently MySQL and PostgreSQL with PostGIS are supported. Could potentially add support for other platforms if an interest is expressed.
-
-Documentation can be found at [here](./doc/index.md)
-
-## composer.json
-```javascript
-{
-    "require": {
-    	...
-        "creof/doctrine2-spatial": "~1"
-```
-
-You will also have to change the version requirement of doctrine to at least 2.3:
-```javascript
-
-        "doctrine/orm": ">=2.3",
-```
+This project has been **unmaintained** since 2017, and should not be used anymore. You should migrate to an alternative. One possible choice could be https://github.com/longitude-one/doctrine-spatial.
