Geosections (experimental)

Simple command line tool to create geological cross-sections from borehole and CPT data using .toml configuration files.

Installation

Install the latest release by:

pip install geosections

Or the latest (experimental) version of the main branch directly from GitHub using:

pip install git+https://github.com/Deltares-research/geosections.git

Usage

Every element that needs to plotted in a section is specified in a configuration .toml. Below is a simple example .toml that plots borehole data from a .parquet file and a AHN surface along a section line:

[settings] # General plot settings
column_width = 20 # Width of boreholes
fig_width = 11
fig_height = 7
grid = true

[line]
file = "my_line.shp"
crs = 28992 # Geosections uses this crs as default

[data.boreholes]
file = "my_boreholes.parquet"
max_distance_to_line = 50 # Meters

[[surface]]
file = "ahn_surface.tif"
style_kwds = { color = "r", label = "AHN surface" } # Matplotlib keyword arguments

[labels]
xlabel = "Distance (m)"
ylabel = "Depth (NAP)"

[colors]
Z = "gold"
K = "green"
V = "brown"

Next, create the cross-section by:

geosections plot my_settings.toml --save "my-section.png"
