geofileops 0.3.1b1

Package to do spatial operations on geo files.

geofileops

Library to make spatial operations on large geo files fast(er) and easy.

Remarks:

• Most typical operations are available: buffer, simplify, dissolve, union, erase, intersect,...
• The speed (improvement) depends on the number of available cores, the size of the input files and whether the operation is CPU intensive.
  • For CPU bound operations (eg. intersects,... between large input files) the processing time can be divided by the number of available cores.
  • For dissolve on (very) large files, the speed improvement might be a lot faster, even more than the processing time divided by the available cores.
  • For small files and/or computationally easy operations (eg. buffer) geofileops might be slower than other libraries.
• Tested on geopackage and shapefile input files.
