Footprint Facility Library
Project description
from os import fstat
Footprint display facility
This set of functions includes a set of facilities to manipulate the footprints to be displayed into leaflet, OpenLayer, MapBox and Cesium.
It manages:
- Split polygon to multi-polygon when crossing anti-meridian
- Manage polar area including polar point inside the polygon boundary.
- Manage long footprints with overlays
- Manage thin footprints collapsing polygon in a single lineString
Preliminary information regrading dependencies
We recommend the usage of a virtual environment to embed dependencies. The dependencies are automatically installed during this module installation:
- pyproj
- numpy
- shapely
- geojson
Details can be found in requirements.txt file.
Library usage
The shapely
library provides a set of feature that could be a solution to handle the footprints identified in this study. Unfortunately the library is also concerned by the display issue. For example the intersections operation in shapely fails when footprint contains antimeridian. This later library is mainly used to handle geometries types and formats conversions.
Numpy is used to manipulate the list of coordinates to fix the issues caused by lat/lon limits of the geometry.
Installation
pip install footprint-facility
The module is retrieved from pypi.org service.
Available methods
The rework_to_polygon_geometry(geometry: Geometry) -> Geometry
method reworks the geometry parameter to manage polar and antimeridian singularities. This process implements the Polar inclusive algorithm. The objective of this algorithm is to add the North/South Pole into the list of coordinates of the polygon at the antimeridian cross.
When the geometry contains the pole the single polygon geometry including the pole in its border point list is properly interpreted by displays systems. When the geometry does not contain the pole, the geometry is split among the antimeridian line.

Footprint simplification function
Products such as "S3 Synergy" contains up to 290 points whereas they footprints are single rectangles. Others huge along track acquisition also contains greate number of coordinates. The footprint containing many points could be simplify improve indexing and display services.
This facility module decorates 2 identified algorithms to simplify these footprints:
- Douglas–Peucker algorithm that is implemented into the shapely geometry library wrapped here as
footprint_facility.simplify
. - Convex hull algorithm can be used to reduce de number of points assembly footprint with many polygons. The algorithm is also already implemented in the shapely library.
The Douglas-Peucker algorithm
The Douglas-Peucker algorithm is an algorithm that decimates a curve composed of line segments to a similar curve with fewer points. It was one of the earliest successful algorithms developed for cartographic generalization.
The purpose of the algorithm is, given a curve composed of line segments, to find a similar curve with fewer points. The algorithm defines 'dissimilar' based on the maximum distance between the original curve and the simplified curve. The simplified curve consists of a subset of the points that defined the original curve.
The shapely library used in the footprint_facility module implements this algorithm of simplification. The definition of the distance to be used for the simplification shall be carefully defined to minimize the surface change.
This later distance is also called tolerance. It is expressed in the unit of geometry (degrees for our footprints). As the size of degrees varies according to the latitude of the points, the choice of the tolerance is not trivial to define wrt the footprint is localised closed to the polar areas or the equator. To simplify this inaccuracy, version 1.7 of the library introduces the possibility to specify the tolerance in metres thanks to the tolerance_in_metre
flag.
Code simplification snippet
from footprint_facility import rework_to_polygon_geometry, to_geojson, simplify
geometry = rework_to_polygon_geometry(origin_geometry)
geojson = to_geojson(simplify(geometry, tolerance=0.4, tolerance_in_meter=False))
print(geojson)
We observe the algorithm is quite efficient and reduced the larger the number of points between tolerance set between 0.005 and 0.5:
The variation of the surface regarding reduction of the number of point is not significant.
More Complex footprints
When the footprint crosses antimeridian or pass other the poles, the polygon is not anymore properly supported by the algortihm. it is recommended to systematically manage rework of polygon before performing the simplification.
Example of Footprints crossing antimeridian and pole. The Douglas-Peucker algorithm properly manages this use case when antimeridian case has been previously handled. The pole area (polar inclusion solution) is also well supported:
The Use case of single footprint crossing antimeridian managed as multi-polygon are also well supported:
Sentinel-3 Synergy Data sets identified in the footprint category can be simplified: Here, the 295 points are well aligned and a distance 0 properly simplifies the polygon.
The Convex Hull algorithm
The convex hull is the smallest convex polygon that encloses all points of a geometry. The Sentinel-1 wave-mode images are organized in a list of polygons, and the previously analyzed "Douglas-Peucker" optimization cannot be considered efficient enough to simplify them. The following scheme shows the convex hull (in purple) simplifying the wave-mode images of the set of polygons (in yellow) into a single enclosed polygon.
The curvature of the Earth is visible using an algorithm that considers coordinates in a Euclidean reference frame. The algorithm will be improved to support spherical coordinates, but the 2D convex hull used here reduces the number of points by 90%. The convex hull created an envelope that contains all the points of the wave mode without fitting the entire huge envelope (green shape): This algorithm remains a good solution for reducing the number of points to optimize indexing systems.
When using the convex hull algorithm with a footprint that crosses the antimeridian, it must be managed before applying the implementation. In the following scheme, the antimeridian is materialized in red and the footprint hull is spread on each side of the red line:
Code snippet to manage the footprint
import shapely
from footprint_facility import rework_to_polygon_geometry, to_geojson
geometry = rework_to_polygon_geometry(origin_geometry)
# split eastern/wester part of the polygon
west_geometry = geometry.intersection(shapely.box(-180, -90, 0, 90))
east_geometry = geometry.intersection(shapely.box(0, -90, 180, 90))
convex_hull = shapely.MultiPolygon([east_geometry.convex_hull, west_geometry.convex_hull])
print (to_geojson(convex_hull))
fpstat
tool
Starting from version 1.5, the distribution comes with a tool dedicated to help analysing the discrepancies introduced by the optimizations. It loads a footprint in WKT or GeoJSON format, and apply an optimization to make a before/after comparison and identify added and removed section into the footprints.
fpstat --help
usage: fpstat [-h] -f orig_footprint [-ff {wkt,geojson}] [-o output] [-r]
[-p precision] [-a {simplify,convex_hull}] [-t tolerance] [-m]
compare footprint optimization results
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-f orig_footprint the footprint to be optimized
-ff {wkt,geojson} passed footprint format (default=wkt)
-o output output file name of the results. The output format is selected
according to the file extension, if ".htm." HTML interactive
map is generated, otherwise results are returned in GeoJSON
format
-r rework the footprint before optimization
-p precision defines the optimized/reworked footprint precision (default=0
no precision defined).
-a {simplify,convex_hull}
selection of the footprint simplification algorithm
-t tolerance the simplify tolerance value
-m the tolerance unit is in meter. Overwise no unit conversion is
performed from the geometry input (usually degrees)
Usage example with the polygon crossing antimeridian
fpstat -o output.html -r -f "$(cat polygon.wkt)" -t 1.0
When providing -o filename
, a GeoJSON file is generated with 4 main features:
- the original geometry, with area in m2 and its number of points in properties.
- the reworked geometry, with its area in m2, its reduced number of points, and the selected tolerance in properties.
- If exists, the geometry of the area added by the optimization and its area in m2
- If exists, the geometry of the area removed by the optimization and its area in m2

When the output file ends with .html
extension (with -o
option), the command line generates an interactive map to navigate inside the results. The layer displays both sources and optimized footprints, and when difference exists, it includes dedicated layers to show them. More layers are present to view added and removed area.
Each trace on map raises a tooltip to see the area of each trace and tne number of points:
Starting from version 1.7, the tolerance can be provided into meter activating the -m
parameter flag. The library expects geometries in geographic projection and coordinates are expressed in degrees. When setting the tolerance in meter, the footprint is internally converted in metric projection (Plate Carée global pojection also called Equidistant Cylindrical) to manage the Douglas-Pucker algorithm in meter based distances. Then, once processed, the geometry is back to latlon to be returned as result.

Footprint simplification conclusion
Reducing the number of points in the EO data footprint can have a positive effect by optimizing the display and faster indexing systems. However, it may introduce inaccuracies in these footprints. For example, using the convex hull algorithm on a Sentinel-1 wave mode can reduce the number of points to 90%, the counterpart is the footprint will cover a larger area than the data. The fpstat
tool provided within the later distributions help to identify these differences.
The use of the Douglas-Peucker algorithm is also very efficient and according to the tolerance parameter, the simplified result footprint surface may not shift more than 1%. For example, we demonstrate that S3 SYNERGY products can be completely simplified with 0 tolerance without any surface modification. Other products, in particular long footprints with many points along tracks, can also be simplified by controlling the deviations with the tolerance.
Developers Corner
Set the footprint precision
The library can handle footprint precision, reducing the number of decimals composing the geometries.
By default, not precision is defined, and the geometry decimal number is managed thanks to the input geometries.
To define the precisions the method footprint_facility.set_raise_exception(precision: float)
. The precision value shall be greater or equals to 0. 0 means not precision shall be set, then the precision value is the precision grid size.
example of precision for π= 3.1415926535897...
precision | value |
---|---|
0 | π |
1 | 3 |
0.1 | 3.1 |
0.01 | 3.14 |

Usage example:
from shapely import wkt
import footprint_facility
_wkt = """
POLYGON((1.1337565834818406 47.53419913245443,
0.48102854059970923 43.46590619424384,

7.629303288477502 48.23334218606277,
1.1337565834818406 47.53419913245443))
"""
geometry = wkt.loads(_wkt)
footprint_facility.set_precision(1)
reworked = footprint_facility.rework_to_polygon_geometry(geometry)
# expected POLYGON((1 47, 0 43, 6 45, 8 48, 1 47))
The current configured precision can be retrieved with function footprint_facility.get_raise_exception()
Avoiding exceptions
The version 1.4 comes with the possibility to not raise errors when
performing footprint rework. Default exception are active, but thy can easily be deactivated with footprint_facility.set_raise_exception(False)
method:
corrupted_wkt = ("POLYGON ((34.8393 42, 180 43, 180 90, -180 90, "
"-180 43, -178.089 41, 34.8393 42))")
footprint_facility.set_raise_exception(False)
rwrk = footprint_facility.rework_to_polygon_geometry(
wkt.loads(corrupted_wkt))
In this case a warning message is logged onto the standard output and the footprint provided in input will be returned without any modification.
WARNING:footprint_facility:rework_to_polygon_geometry Cannot manage footprint (Points are aligned onto the antimeridian)
The message can be modified with reconfiguring the standard python logger named 'footprint_facility'.
Control Performances
The methods are completed with embedded performances metrics capabilities. To activate them, use the following check_time
method:
import footprint_facility
footprint_facility.check_time(enable=True,
incremental=False,
summary_time=True)
enable
parameter to False
fully deactivate the time management.
incremental
parameter to True
displays metrics during the execution.
summary_time
parameter to True
stores metrics for future display with footprint_facility.show_summary()
Sample Output:
check_cross_antimeridian: 0.69 μs/point
rework_to_polygon_geometry: 6.94 μs/point
simplify: 1.00 μs/point
rework_to_linestring_geometry: 2.99 μs/point
The output is logged onto the standard output using the python logger. If the output is not visible, the logger could be quickly configured as followed:
import logging
logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
The footprint library uses a named logger footprint_facility
that could be configured by clients.
Known issues
Footprint support
Very long footprint crossing both the North and the South poles, crossing the antimeridian 3 times (Use-case Number 10) fails to be rendered.
Polar detection
Detection of the polar point inside the footprint is based on projection transformation within polar stereoscopic projection. Such a transformation cannot be performed on raw footprint that shall manage antimeridian discontinuity.
East/West swaths larger that 180
When eastern distance between consecutive coordinates is longer than 180 and coordinates longitude sign is reverted (e.g. longitudes sequentially -175 then +175), the algorithm uses the smallest area and consider the polygon crossing the antimeridian. To fix this issue, the algorithm shall be upgraded to take into account the clockwise orientation of the coordinates.
