geoconvert 0.2.0

A small geospatial dataset converter package

Introduction

It is used to convert vector files like Shp, KML, GeoJson to one another.

How to RUN

import geoconvert as geoc
data = geoc.vector()

# Loading data
data.path_input = 'Building.shp'
data.config()

# Converting data
data.towgs(path_towgs='export/Building.shp')
data.tokml(path_tokml='export/Building.kml')
data.togeojson(path_togeojson='export/Building.json')

Limitations

It cannot work with multi class dataset. For example - If a KML have both point and line, then conversion will fail. [Resolved in 0.2.0]

RoadMap

• [x] Multiclass dataset support (0.2.0)

• [ ] Raster conversion support

Class

1. Vector

   ### Methods

   1. vector.towgs(path_towgs)

      Saves vector of any coordinate system to WGS coordinates on the given path

      [Default] - ‘Filename_wgs.format’

   2. vector.tokml(path_tokml)

      Saves vector files to KML format. KML is always stored as WGS 84 Geographic coordinate system.

      [Default]

      1. path_tokml = ‘Filename.kml’

   3. vector.toshp(epsg, path_toshp)

      Saves vector files to shp format in the provided epsg code to given path.

      [Default] -

      1. path_toshp = ‘Filename.shp’

      2. epsg = 4326

   4. vector.togeojson(epsg, path_togeojson)

      Saves vector files to KML format. KML is always stored as WGS 84 Geographic coordinate system.

      [Default] -

      1. path_togeojson = ‘Filename.json’

      2. epsg = 4326
