Setup and Installation

pip install geoshaper

An open source library to convert shape files to GeoJSON/TopoJSON

Getting started

import geoshaper as gsh

shaper = gsh.GeoShaper("path")

shaper.to_topojson()

geoshaper.GeoShaper(data="shapes")

data: folder path with shapes or GeoDataFrame object. If data is a string, GeoShaper will read the folder, and will convert the shapes inside in a GeoDataFrame

shaper.to_geojson(path="output.json")

Save shaper to geojson. If path not provided, the result is returned as output.json.

shaper.to_topojson(path="output.json", quantization=1e6, simplify=0.0001)

Save shaper to geojson. If path not provided, the result is returned as output.json.
