KML utilities for the ElementTree API
Project description
Keytree provides functions for reading and writing KML using the ElementTree API.
Reading KML
KML Placemark elements can be adapted to the Python geo interface and then used with packages like Shapely:
>>> data = """<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ... <kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2"> ... <Document> ... <Placemark id="pm_1"> ... <name>point</name> ... <Snippet>Point test</Snippet> ... <Point> ... <coordinates> ... -122.364383,37.824664,0 ... </coordinates> ... </Point> ... </Placemark> ... </Document> ... </kml> ... """ >>> from xml.etree import ElementTree >>> doc = ElementTree.fromstring(data) >>> kmlns = doc.tag.split('}')[0][1:] >>> placemarks = doc.findall('*/{%s}Placemark' % kmlns) >>> p0 = placemarks[0] >>> import keytree >>> f = keytree.feature(p0) >>> print f.id, f.properties.name, f.properties.snippet pm_1, point, Point test >>> >>> from shapely.geometry import shape >>> s = shape(f.geometry) >>> print s.buffer(1.5).exterior.length 9.4209934708642571
Writing KML
Objects that provide the Python geo interface can also be converted to ElementTree API Elements:
>>> f = { ... 'id': 'pm_2', ... 'geometry': { ... 'type': 'Point', ... 'coordinates': (-122.364383, 37.824663999999999) }, ... 'properties': { ... 'title': 'Feature 2', ... 'description': 'The second feature', }
The first argument to the keytree.element function is an XML context, the created element will have the same namespace as that element:
>>> data = """<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> ... <kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2"> ... <Document> ... </Document> ... </kml> ... """ >>> doc = ElementTree.fromstring(data) >>> elem = element(doc, f) >>> print elem <Element {http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2}Placemark at ...> >>> pprint(list(elem)) [<Element {http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2}name at ...>, <Element {http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2}Snippet at ...>, <Element {http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2}description at ...>, <Element {http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2}Point at ...>]
The created element is not automatically added to the KML context and must be appended to its proper Document or Folder:
>>> doc[0].append(elem) >>> print etree.tostring(doc) <ns0:kml xmlns:ns0="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2"> <ns0:Document> <ns0:Placemark id="pm_2"> <ns0:name>Number 2</ns0:name> <ns0:Snippet>Placemark number 2</ns0:Snippet> <ns0:description /> <ns0:Point> <ns0:coordinates>0.000000,0.000000,0.0</ns0:coordinates> </ns0:Point> </ns0:Placemark> </ns0:Document> </ns0:kml>
KML Helpers
The keytree.kml module contains a few useful utility functions:
>>> from keytree.kml import kml_ns, findall_placemarks >>> print kml_ns(doc) {http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2} >>> findall_placemarks(doc) [<Element {http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2}Placemark at ...>]
