geofileops.export_by_bounds

geofileops.export_by_bounds(input_path: Union[str, os.PathLike[Any]], output_path: Union[str, os.PathLike[Any]], bounds: Tuple[float, float, float, float], input_layer: Optional[str] = None, output_layer: Optional[str] = None, columns: Optional[List[str]] = None, explodecollections: bool = False, force: bool = False)

Export the rows that intersect with the bounds specified.

If explodecollections is False and the input and output file type is GeoPackage, the fid will be preserved. In other cases this will typically not be the case.

Parameters:

• input_path (PathLike) – the input file

• output_path (PathLike) – the file to write the result to

• bounds (Tuple[float, float, float, float]) – the bounds to filter on.

• input_layer (str, optional) – input layer name. Optional if the file only contains one layer.

• output_layer (str, optional) – input layer name. Optional if the file only contains one layer.

• columns (List[str], optional) – list of columns to retain. If None, all standard columns are retained. In addition to standard columns, it is also possible to specify “fid”, a unique index available in all input files. Note that the “fid” will be aliased eg. to “fid_1”. Defaults to None.

• explodecollections (bool, optional) – True to output only simple geometries. Defaults to False.

• force (bool, optional) – overwrite existing output file(s). Defaults to False.
