World ADM0 boundaries extended with Voronoi-filled coastline

topo-tools is a collection of DuckDB-powered geospatial topology utilities for cleaning and reconciling administrative boundary polygons, usable from the CLI or as a Python package.

Full documentation: https://ocha-dap.github.io/topo-tools-py/

Tool Description
schema-crosswalk map and apply a source to target schema crosswalk
schema-map infer a source to target schema crosswalk
schema-refactor apply a schema crosswalk
schema-fill fill down admin-hierarchy columns
schema-join copy parent admin-hierarchy columns onto each child
topo-clean detect and fix gap/overlap defects
topo-detect detect gap/overlap defects
edge-match fit a child layer into a parent layer
edge-extend fill gaps with a Voronoi extension
edge-mosaic re-clip an extended child layer into a new parent
edge-clip clip a child layer to its parent
edge-stitch close seams in a tiled layer
change classify changes between two polygon layer versions
package dissolve, label, and line-ify a layer in one call
package-polygons dissolve a layer into coarser admin levels
package-points one label point per admin unit
package-lines deduplicated admin boundary lines

Installation

Install with uv (recommended):

uv tool install topo-tools   # CLI
uv add topo-tools            # Python library

Or with pip/pipx:

pip install topo-tools       # CLI or library
pipx install topo-tools      # CLI

On macOS/Linux, topo-tools is also available via Homebrew, no Python tooling required:

brew install OCHA-DAP/topo-tools/topo-tools

Supported Formats

Polygon inputs/outputs: GeoParquet (.parquet), GeoPackage (.gpkg), Shapefile (.shp), GeoJSON (.geojson). Output format matches input format. change's tabular changelog is CSV or GeoParquet only; its spatial overlay layer supports the same four formats as the other tools.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for development setup.
