# ProjPicker

[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/projpicker.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/py/projpicker)
[![Documentation Status](https://readthedocs.org/projects/projpicker/badge/?version=latest)](https://projpicker.readthedocs.io/en/latest/?badge=latest)

[ProjPicker](https://github.com/HuidaeCho/projpicker) (projection picker) is a
Python module that allows the user to select all coordinate reference systems
(CRSs) whose extent completely contains given points, polylines, polygons, and
bounding boxes. The goal is to make it easy and visual to select a desired
projection by location. This project was motivated by
[a GRASS GIS feature request](https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/issues/1253).
It is a work in progress; join [discussions](https://github.com/HuidaeCho/projpicker/wiki).
See also [the command-line and API documentation](https://projpicker.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

## Branches

### main

This branch is the main development and release branch for both the API and CLI
of ProjPicker.

### rtree-oop

The [rtree-oop](https://github.com/HuidaeCho/projpicker/tree/rtree-oop) branch
utilizes [the rtree module](https://github.com/Toblerity/rtree) in an
object-oriented programming (OOP) way. This branch supports point intersection.
The rtree spatial indexing may not be able to handle reversed west and east
longitudinal boundaries that cross the antimeridian. This branch is archived
and not under active development.

## TODO

1. GUI
   * ArcGIS Pro Toolbox for ArcGIS users including IESA students
   * Web (client-only)
   * Desktop
2. CRS hints
   * Crowdsourcing agency and product information? Is usage from PROJ enough?

## Versioning

`N(.N)*[{a|b|rc}N][.postN][.devN]`

* [PEP 440](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0440/)
* `{a|b|rc|.dev}N` towards and `.postN` away from the release
* Not fully compatible with [semantic versioning](https://semver.org/)
* Not using build numbers marching away from or towards a release, but check
  this [interesting
  comment](https://github.com/semver/semver/issues/51#issuecomment-9718111).
