cldfgeojson provides tools to work with geographic data structures encoded as GeoJSON in the context of CLDF datasets.

pip install cldfgeojson

The functionality in cldfgeojson.create helps adding speaker area information when creating CLDF datasets (e.g. with cldfbench).

Tools like shapely allow doing geometry with shapes derived from GeoJSON, e.g. computing intersections or centroids. But shapely considers coordinates to be in the cartesian plane rather than on the surface of the earth. While this works generally well enough close to the equator, it fails for geometries crossing the antimeridian. To prepare GeoJSON objects for investigation with shapely, we provide a function that "moves" objects on a - somewhat linguistically informed - pacific-centered cartesian plane: longitudes less than 26°W are adapted by adding 360°, basically moving the interval of valid longitudes from -180°..180° to -26°..334°. While this just moves the antimeridian problems to 26°W, it's still useful because most spatial data about languages does not cross 26°W - which cannot be said for 180°E because this longitude is crosssed by the speaker area of the Austronesian family.

>>> from cldfgeojson.geojson import pacific_centered
>>> from shapely.geometry import shape
>>> p1 = shape({"type": "Point", "coordinates": [179, 0]})
>>> p2 = shape({"type": "Point", "coordinates": [-179, 0]})
>>> p1.distance(p2)
358.0
>>> p1 = shape(pacific_centered({"type": "Point", "coordinates": [179, 0]}))
>>> p2 = shape(pacific_centered({"type": "Point", "coordinates": [-179, 0]}))
>>> p1.distance(p2)
2.0

The cldfgeojson.geotiff module provides functionality related to images in GeoTIFF format.

cldfgeojson also provides cldfbench sub-commands:

• geojson.webmercator
• geojson.overlay
