GeoZero

Zero-Copy reading and writing of geospatial data.

GeoZero defines an API for reading geospatial data formats without an intermediate representation. It defines traits which can be implemented to read and convert to an arbitrary format or render geometries directly.

Supported geometry types:

• OGC Simple Features
• Circular arcs as defined by SQL-MM Part 3
• TIN

Supported dimensions: X, Y, Z, M, T

Available implementations

geozero-core

• GeoJSON Reader + Writer
• GEOS Reader + Writer
• GDAL geometry Reader + Writer
• WKB Reader supporting
  • PostGIS geometries for rust-postgres and SQLx
  • GeoPackage geometries for SQLx
• WKT Writer
• SVG Writer
• geo-types Writer

External:

• FlatGeobuf Reader

Applications

• flatgeobuf-gpu: Demo rendering FlatGeobuf to GPU
• flatgeobuf-bevy: Demo rendering FlatGeobuf with WebGPU (native platforms) and WebGL2 (Web/WASM)
• flatgeobuf-wasm: WASM demo displaying FlatGeobuf as SVG

CLI

geozero includes an experimental command line interface for converting between supported formats.

Usage examples

Count vertices of an input geometry:

struct VertexCounter(u64);

impl GeomProcessor for VertexCounter {
    fn xy(&mut self, _x: f64, _y: f64, _idx: usize) -> Result<()> {
        self.0 += 1;
        Ok(())
    }
}

let mut vertex_counter = VertexCounter(0);
geometry.process(&mut vertex_counter, GeometryType::MultiPolygon)?;

Find maximal height in 3D polygons:

struct MaxHeightFinder(f64);

impl GeomProcessor for MaxHeightFinder {
    fn coordinate(&mut self, _x: f64, _y: f64, z: Option<f64>, _m: Option<f64>, _t: Option<f64>, _tm: Option<u64>, _idx: usize) -> Result<()> {
        if let Some(z) = z {
            if z > self.0 {
                self.0 = z
            }
        }
        Ok(())
    }
}

let mut max_finder = MaxHeightFinder(0.0);
while let Some(feature) = fgb.next()? {
    let geometry = feature.geometry().unwrap();
    geometry.process(&mut max_finder, GeometryType::MultiPolygon)?;
}

Render polygons:

struct PathDrawer<'a> {
    canvas: &'a mut CanvasRenderingContext2D,
    path: Path2D,
}

impl<'a> GeomProcessor for PathDrawer<'a> {
    fn linestring_begin(&mut self, _tagged: bool, _size: usize, _idx: usize) -> Result<()> {
        self.path = Path2D::new();
        Ok(())
    }
    fn xy(&mut self, x: f64, y: f64, idx: usize) -> Result<()> {
        if idx == 0 {
            self.path.move_to(vec2f(x, y));
        } else {
            self.path.line_to(vec2f(x, y));
        }
        Ok(())
    }
    fn linestring_end(&mut self, _tagged: bool, _idx: usize) -> Result<()> {
        self.path.close_path();
        self.canvas.fill_path(self.path.to_owned(), FillRule::Winding);
        Ok(())
    }
}

Read a FlatGeobuf dataset with async HTTP client applying a bbox filter and convert to GeoJSON:

let url = "https://github.com/pka/geozero/raw/master/geozero-core/tests/data/countries.fgb";
let mut fgb = HttpFgbReader::open(url).await?;
fgb.select_bbox(8.8, 47.2, 9.5, 55.3).await?;

let mut fout = BufWriter::new(File::create("countries.json")?);
let mut json = GeoJsonWriter::new(&mut fout);
fgb.process_features(&mut json).await?;

Read FlatGeobuf data as geo-types geometries and calculate label position with polylabel-rs:

let mut file = BufReader::new(File::open("countries.fgb")?);
let mut fgb = FgbReader::open(&mut file)?;
fgb.select_all()?;
while let Some(feature) = fgb.next()? {
    let props = feature.properties()?;
    let geometry = feature.geometry().unwrap();
    let mut geo = Geo::new();
    geometry.process(&mut geo, GeometryType::MultiPolygon)?;
    if let Geometry::MultiPolygon(mpoly) = geo.geometry() {
        if let Some(poly) = &mpoly.0.iter().next() {
            let label_pos = polylabel(&poly, &0.10).unwrap();
            println!("{}: {:?}", props["name"], label_pos);
        }
    }
}

Create a KD-tree index with kdbush:

struct PointIndex {
    pos: usize,
    index: KDBush,
}

impl geozero::GeomProcessor for PointIndex {
    fn xy(&mut self, x: f64, y: f64, _idx: usize) -> Result<()> {
        self.index.add_point(self.pos, x, y);
        self.pos += 1;
        Ok(())
    }
}

let mut points = PointIndex {
    pos: 0,
    index: KDBush::new(1249, DEFAULT_NODE_SIZE),
};
read_geojson_geom(f, &mut points)?;
points.index.build_index();

Use GEOS with prepared geometries:

let geojson = r#"{"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[0, 0], [10, 0], [10, 6], [0, 6], [0, 0]]]}"#;
let mut geos = Geos::new();
read_geojson(geojson.as_bytes(), &mut geos).unwrap();
let prepared_geom = geos.geometry().to_prepared_geom().expect("to_prepared_geom failed");
let geom2 = geos::Geometry::new_from_wkt("POINT (2.5 2.5)").expect("Invalid geometry");
assert_eq!(prepared_geom.contains(&geom2), Ok(true));
