PostGIS Python tools
Project description
plpygis is a Python conveter to and from the PostGIS geometry type, WKB, EWKB, GeoJSON and Shapely geometries and additionally supports __geo_interface__. plpygis is intended for use in PL/Python functions.
Basic usage
The Geometry class and its subclasses can be used to convert to and from PostGIS geometries. The following example will take a PostGIS multipolygon geometry named geom and find its largest component polygon.
Geometry() can convert a Postigs geometry that has been passed as a parameter to a PL/Python function. A Geometry that is returned from the PL/Python function will automatically be converted back to a PostGIS geometry.
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION largest_poly(geom geometry)
RETURNS geometry
AS $$
from plpygis import Geometry
polygons = Geometry(geom)
if polygons.type == "Polygon":
return polygons
elif polygons.type == "MultiPolygon":
largest = max(polygons.shapely, key=lambda polygon: polygon.area)
return Geometry.from_shapely(largest)
else:
return None
$$ LANGUAGE plpythonu;
