GeoFeatureKit

Turn any location into rich urban data. Get POIs, street networks, and accessibility metrics from just coordinates.

🚀 Quick Start

pip install geofeaturekit

Basic Analysis

from geofeaturekit import extract_features

# Analyze any location (lat, lon, radius_meters)
features = extract_features(40.7580, -73.9855, 500)

# Access the structured data
print(features['poi_metrics']['absolute_counts']['total_points_of_interest'])  # 1076
print(features['poi_metrics']['density_metrics']['points_of_interest_per_sqkm'])  # 1370.0
print(features['network_metrics']['basic_metrics']['total_intersections'])  # 731

Multi-Modal Accessibility

from geofeaturekit import extract_multimodal_features

# Compare walking vs biking reach
features = extract_multimodal_features(
    40.7580, -73.9855,
    walk_time_minutes=10,
    bike_time_minutes=10
)

walk_pois = features['walk_features']['poi_metrics']['absolute_counts']['total_points_of_interest']
bike_pois = features['bike_features']['poi_metrics']['absolute_counts']['total_points_of_interest']

print(f"🚶 10-min walk: {walk_pois} POIs reachable")     # 2104 POIs
print(f"🚴 10-min bike: {bike_pois} POIs reachable")     # 12200 POIs  
print(f"🎯 Bike advantage: {bike_pois/walk_pois:.1f}x more places")  # 5.8x

Batch Processing

from geofeaturekit import extract_features_batch

# Analyze multiple locations at once
locations = [
    (40.7580, -73.9855, 500),  # Times Square
    (40.7829, -73.9654, 500),  # Central Park
    (40.7527, -73.9772, 500),  # Grand Central
]

results = extract_features_batch(locations)

for i, result in enumerate(results):
    pois = result['poi_metrics']['absolute_counts']['total_points_of_interest']
    restaurants = result['poi_metrics']['absolute_counts']['counts_by_category']['total_dining_places']['count']
    print(f"Location {i+1}: {pois} POIs, {restaurants} restaurants")
    # Location 1: 1076 POIs, 400 restaurants
    # Location 2: 185 POIs, 12 restaurants  
    # Location 3: 1131 POIs, 323 restaurants

Progress Tracking

def progress_handler(message, progress):
    print(f"[{progress:.0%}] {message}")

# Add progress callback for long-running analysis
features = extract_features(
    40.7580, -73.9855, 1000,
    verbose=True,
    progress_callback=progress_handler
)

POI Analysis:

• poi_metrics['absolute_counts'] - Raw counts by category (23 categories)
• poi_metrics['density_metrics'] - POIs per km², density by category
• poi_metrics['distribution_metrics'] - Diversity indices, spatial patterns

Street Network:

• network_metrics['basic_metrics'] - Nodes, intersections, street length
• network_metrics['connectivity_metrics'] - Connections per node, ratios
• network_metrics['street_pattern_metrics'] - Bearing entropy, grid patterns

Multi-Modal Features:

• walk_features, bike_features, drive_features - Same structure as above
