Vyperdatum

Vyperdatum [definition]

Installation

Vyperdatum requires GDAL which can be installed from the conda's conda-forge channel. Below, we first create a conda environment, install GDAL and Vperdatum.

conda create -n vd python=3.11
conda activate vd
conda install -c conda-forge gdal=3.8.4
pip install vyperdatum

Usage

Vyperdatum offers a Transformer class to handle the transformation of point and raster data. The Transformer class applies transformation from crs_from to crs_to coordinate reference systems. The transformation steps can be prescribed manually or let the Pipeline class to infer:

from vyperdatum.transformer import Transformer
from vyperdatum.pipeline import Pipeline

crs_from = "EPSG:6346"
crs_to = "EPSG:6346+NOAA:5224"
tf = Transformer(crs_from=crs_from,
                 crs_to=crs_to,
                 steps=["EPSG:6346", "EPSG:6319", "EPSG:6318+NOAA:5224", "EPSG:6346+NOAA:5224"]
                 #  steps=Pipeline(crs_from=crs_from, crs_to=crs_to).linear_steps()
                 #  steps=Pipeline(crs_from=crs_from, crs_to=crs_to).graph_steps()                 
                 )

Once an instance of the Transformer class is created, raster or point transformation methods can be called.

raster transform

tf.transform_raster(input_file=<PATH_TO_INPUT_RASTER_FILE>,
                    output_file=<PATH_TO_OUTPUT_RASTER_FILE>
                    )

point transform

# random values
x, y, z = 278881.198, 2719890.433, 0
xt, yt, zt = tf.transform_points(x, y, z, always_xy=True, allow_ballpark=False)

Vyperdatum Transformer class offers a few methods to support file formats that are not supported by GDAL, such as Variable Resolution BAG, and LAZ point cloud data.

VRBAG Transform

input_file = "PATH_TO_INPUT_VRBAG.bag"
output_file = "PATH_TO_OUTPUT_VRBAG.bag"
tf.transform_vrbag(input_file=input_file, output_file=output_file)

LAZ Transform

input_file = "PATH_TO_INPUT_LAZ.laz"
output_file = "PATH_TO_OUTPUT_LAZ.laz"
tf.transform_laz(input_file=input_file, output_file=output_file)
