geodense

Python library and CLI tool to check density and densify geometries using the geodesic (ellipsoidal great-circle) calculation for accurate CRS transformations.

Implementation based on Eenduidige transformatie van grenzen tussen ETRS89 en RD

Depends on the following Python packages with binary dependencies (installed through uv or pip):

• pyproj: requires libproj
• shapely: requires libgeos

Installation

Install with either uv or pip:

# pip
pip install geodense

# uv: run as cli tool
uvx geodense

# uv: add as dependency to project
uv add geodense

Usage CLI

Use either geodense or the short gden alias:

$ geodense --help

Usage: geodense [-h] [-v] {densify,check-density} ...

Check density of, and densify geometries using the geodesic (ellipsoidal great-circle) calculation for accurate CRS transformations

Commands:
  {densify,check-density}

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --version         show program's version number and exit
