geojson Encoder/decoder for simple GIS features geojson: encode/decode geodata ============================== This package contains: * The reference implementation of the Python geo interface: http://trac.gispython.org/lab/wiki/PythonGeoInterface * Functions for encoding and decoding GeoJSON (http://geojson.org) formatted data. Geojson provides geometry, feature, and collection classes, and supports pickle-style dump and load of objects that provide the lab's Python geo interface. Here's an example of a round-trip through the GeoJSON format:: >>> import geojson >>> p = geojson.Point([0.0, 0.0]) >>> p Point(coordinates=[0.0, 0.0]) >>> data = geojson.dumps(p) >>> data '{"type": "Point", "coordinates": [0.0, 0.0]}' >>> q = geojson.loads(data, object_hook=geojson.GeoJSON.to_instance) >>> q Point(coordinates=[0.0, 0.0]) The geometry classes interoperate with Shapely via the geo interface:: >>> from shapely.geometry import asShape >>> x = asShape(p) >>> x.wkt 'POINT (0.0000000000000000 0.0000000000000000)' Sean Gillies 6d4fc00ffb9c849f15b4c0b55833b29e33794116 1.0.1
