There is a set of generic SWIG interface files in the GDAL source tree (subdirectory swig) and a set of language bindings based on those. Currently active ones are:

There are also other bindings that are developed outside of the GDAL source tree (note: those offer APIs not strictly coupled the GDAL/OGR C/C++ API). These include bindings for

Go

Julia

Lua

Original Node.js bindings

Node.js fork with full Promise-based async and TypeScript support

Perl

PHP

R

Rust

Warning

For Perl, since GDAL 3.5 the link Perl is deprecated, use above link instead.

There are also more Pythonic ways of using the vector/OGR functions with

Fiona

Rasterio

There is a more idiomatic Golang way of using the raster functions with
