telluric

Overview

telluric is a Python library to manage vector and raster geospatial data in an interactive and easy way.

Opening a raster is as simple as:

In [1]: import telluric as tl

In [2]: tl.GeoRaster2.open("http://download.osgeo.org/geotiff/samples/usgs/f41078e1.tif")
Out[2]: <telluric.georaster.GeoRaster2 at 0x7facd183ad68>

And reading some vector data is equally simple:

In [3]: tl.FileCollection.open("shapefiles/usa-major-cities.shp")
Out[3]: <telluric.collections.FileCollection at 0x7facd1183048>
