Description : basic implementation of the __geo_interface__
PyGeoIf provides a GeoJSON-like protocol for geo-spatial (GIS) vector data.
.
So when you want to write your own geospatial library with support for this
protocol you may use pygeoif as a starting point and build your functionality
on top of it
.
You may think of pygeoif as a ‘shapely ultralight’ which lets you construct
geometries and perform very basic operations like reading and writing
geometries from/to WKT, constructing line strings out of points, polygons from
linear rings, multi polygons from polygons, etc. It was inspired by shapely and
implements the geometries in a way that when you are familiar with shapely you
feel right at home with pygeoif
this is a dep for fastkml
