GeoUtils is a Python package for accessible, efficient and reliable geospatial analysis.
Important
GeoUtils v0.1 is released, with most features drafted 3 years ago now finalized 🎉! We are working on an Xarray accessor and a few other features for 2025.
GeoUtils is built on top of core geospatial packages (Rasterio, GeoPandas, PyProj) and numerical packages (NumPy, Xarray, SciPy) to provide consistent higher-level functionalities at the interface of raster, vector and point cloud objects (such as match-reference reprojection, point interpolation or gridding).
It is tailored to perform quantitative analysis that implicitly understands the intricacies of geospatial data (nodata values, projection, pixel interpretation), through an intuitive object-based API to foster accessibility, and strives to be computationally scalable through Dask.
If you are looking to port your GDAL or QGIS workflow in Python, GeoUtils is made for you!
