Set of tools to handle raster and vector data sets in Python.

This package offers Python classes and functions as well as command line tools to work with both geospatial raster and vector datasets. It is built upon rasterio and GeoPandas. In a single command it can import any geo-referenced dataset that is understood by these libraries, complete with all geo-referencing information, various helper functions and interface between vector/raster data.

conda install --channel conda-forge --strict-channel-priority geoutils

The --strict-channel-priority flag seems essential for Windows installs to function correctly, and is recommended for UNIX-based systems as well.

From PyPI:

pip install geoutils

Or from the repository tarball: make sure GDAL and PROJ are properly installed, then:

pip install https://github.com/GlacioHack/geoutils/tarball/main

See the full documentation at https://geoutils.readthedocs.io.

GeoUtils is composed of three libraries:

• georaster.py to handle raster data set. In particular, a Raster class to load a raster file along with metadata.
• geovector.py to handle vector data set. In particular, a Vector class to load a raster file along with metadata.
• projtools.py with various tools around projections.

You can find ways to improve the libraries in the issues section. All contributions are welcome.
