The Toblerity Project
==============================================================================

The Toblerity project is a http://github.com organization that contains a 
number of related Python projects for manipulating, querying, and processing 
geospatial geometry data.

Shapely_ is a Python wrapper for GEOS_ for algebraic manipulation of geometry. 

Rtree_ is a Python wrapper for libspatialindex_ for fast spatial queries of geometry.

`zope.index.rtree`_ is a module that uses Rtree_ to provide spatial indexing to 
ZODB3_
