Vector Maps
Vector Geometries
I would like to implement different Geometry classes:
- point
- (segment)
- line
- boundary
- centroid
- area
>>> pnt0 = Point(x0, y0)
>>> pnt1 = Point(x1, y1)
>>> pnt2 = Point(x2, y2)
>>> line0 = Line([pnt0, pnt1, pnt2])
>>> bound0 = Boundary([pnt0, pnt1, pnt2])
>>> area = Area(bount0, Centroid(x3, y3))
Line attributes and methods
Line should have attributes, like:
>>> line0.length # return the length
960.5
>>> line0.bbox # return the bbox>>> for segment in line.nseg
2
(pnt0, pnt1)
>>> line0.number # return the number line
>>> for segment in line.nseg # return the number of segments
2
Line is iterable and return a point object.
>>> for point in line0:
... # do somenthing
Line should have a method to return a Segments.
>>> for segment in line.segs():
... # return a list of tuple [(pnt0, pnt1), (pnt1, pnt2),]
... # do somethig
>>> pnt0 in line0 # check if line contain point
True
>>> lineX in line0
Boundary
>>> bound0.perimeter()
1023.8
>>> bound.nseg # return the number of segments
>>> for point in bound0:
... # do something
>>> for seg in bound0.segs():
... # do something
Area
>>> area0.boundary # return a boundary object
>>> area0.centroid #return a point object
>>> area0.area()

All the geometries object should have methods like the python sets (may be not all):
Operation Equivalent Result
len(s) return the number of points
x in s test x for membership in s
x not in s test x for non-membership in s
s.issubset(t) s <= t test whether every element in s is in t
s.issuperset(t) s >= t test whether every element in t is in s
s.union(t) s | t new set with elements from both s and t
s.intersection(t) s & t new set with elements common to s and t
s.difference(t) s - t new set with elements in s but not in t
s.symmetric_difference(t) s ^ t new set with elements in either s or t but not both
s.copy() new set with a shallow copy of s
more details on python sets here:
http://docs.python.org/library/sets.html#set-objects
and/or use some methods like shapely:
http://toblerity.github.com/shapely/manual.html#binary-predicates
and
http://toblerity.github.com/shapely/manual.html#spatial-analysis-methods
another possibility could be to include shapely to add a native support to grass and topology.
And point, line, boundary and Area should have a:
- buffer method, that return an Area object.
- distance method, that return the minimal distance between objcts
- wkt, return a well know text
- wkb, return well know binary
Vector obj
Vect obj should have attributes like:
>>> roads = Vect('roads')
>>> roads.name
'roads'
As for raster object should have an history object:
>>> road.hist.creator
'pietro'
>>> roads.exist()
True
>>> roads.isopen()
False
>>> for row in roads:
... # do something
...
>>> roads.open(topology = True)
Layer
Topology
Categories
Attributes table
The attributes table should be inherit from Structured Array class
http://docs.scipy.org/doc/numpy/user/basics.rec.html#structured-arrays
Vector should have a connection attribute:
>>> roads.connect
Connection (db='postgresql', user='pietro', etc.)
>>> roads.exist()
False
>>> roads.attributes # return a OrderedDict
OrderedDict([('cat', int),('name', str),('geo', geometry)])
we can add a new column with
>>> roads.attributes['length'] = float
>>> for road in roads:
... road['length'] = road.length
#as for numpy array:
>>> (roads['length'] <= 1000).nonzero() # return the index of all the roads that respect this conditions
allow SQL query:
>>> roads.sql("SELECT * FROM roads WHERE length <= 1000 ORDER BY length LIMIT 100")
