A command-line tool for reducing the size of GeoJSON files.
Project description
geojson-shave reduces the size of GeoJSON files by:
- Truncating latitude/longitude coordinates to the specified decimal places.
- Eliminating unnecessary whitespace.
- (Optionally) replacing the properties key's value with null/empty dictionary.
This tool assumes that your GeoJSON file confirms to the RFC 7946.
Installation
$ pip install geojson-shave
Usage
Simply pass the file path of your GeoJSON file and it will truncuate the coordinates to 5 decimal places, outputing to the current working directory:
$ geojson-shave roads.geoson
Alterntatively you can specify the number of decimal points you want the coordiantes truncuated to:
$ geojson-shave roads.geojson -d 3
You can also specify if you only want certain Geometry object types in the file to be processed:
$ geojson-shave roads.geojson -g LineString Polygon
Note that the -g option doesn't apply to objects nested within Geometry Collection.
And to reduce the file size even further you can nullify the property value of Feature objects:
$ geojson-shave roads.geojson -p
Output to a directory other than the current working directory:
$ geojson-shave roads.geojson -o ../data/output.geojson
TODO
- Add support for passing the URL of a hosted GeoJSON file to the tool.
