Fiona provides uncomplicated Python interfaces to functions in OGR, the best
|
|
open source C/C++ library for reading and writing geographic vector data.
|
|
|
|
Fiona is designed to be simple and dependable. It focuses on reading and
|
|
writing data in standard Python IO style, and relies upon familiar Python types
|
|
and protocols such as files, dictionaries, mappings, and iterators instead of
|
|
classes specific to OGR. Fiona can read and write real-world data using
|
|
multi-layered GIS formats and zipped virtual file systems and integrates
|
|
readily with other Python GIS packages such as pyproj, Rtree and Shapely.
