geotrans 0.0.4

Fast geodata filetype transformations using geopandas.

Geotransformations Python Command Line Utility

Documentation

• Published on ReadTheDocs: Documentation

Features

• Command line utility for quick transformations between geodata/spatial filetypes.
• Python functions with documentation for direct usage.
  • This is my own main use case: A package with all basic geopandas file loads and saves bundled.
• Uses Python pathlib for cross-platform path handling.

Support

Currently supports:

• GeoPackages
• Esri Shapefiles
• File Geodatabases Read only
• GeoJSON

All file formats supported by geopandas can be implemented.

Dependencies

• geopandas for transforming between geodata filetypes which in turn uses GDAL, fiona.
• click for command line integration.

Alternatives

The GDAL tool ogr2ogr is a much more sophisticated command-line tool for converting between spatial file formats.

Geopandas by itself supports many more spatial file formats. For more advanced use cases in Python I recommend just using geopandas.
