GeoDesk for Python Version 0.1.10 introduces geometric filters, which select features based on the properties of their shape. Four new filter methods are available in this release:
-
min_area() -
max_area() -
min_length() -
max_length()
These filters are particularly useful for quality assurance of OpenStreetMap data – they quickly identify features that are abnormally large or small, such as buildings that are classified as “houses,” but in reality represent sheds or garages.
