Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Fork Notes

This project is a fork of https://github.com/naturalatlas/node-gdal that:

  • Updates native dependencies (GDAL/PROJ/GEOS) to latest versions
  • Updates the build system/JS/prebuilds for newer versions of node
  • Adds support for more formats
    • GPKG, sqlite, OSM, MBTiles, MVT
  • Adds additional features
  • Adds async support for raster data + opening/parsing files
  • Adds support for vsimem files using buffers
  • Fixes loads of bugs, performance issues, and more

See the ROADMAP for more info about the future of this fork. All thanks and credit goes to the original maintainers!

Breaking Changes

  • With PROJ 6+, the order of coordinates for EPSG geographic coordinate reference systems is latitude first, longitude second. If you don't want to make large code changes, you can replace code like gdal.SpatialReference.fromEPSG(4326) with gdal.SpatialReference.fromProj4('+init=epsg:4326')

node-gdal-next

NPM version Installs Build Status

Read and write raster and vector geospatial datasets straight from Node.js with this native GDAL binding. To get started, browse the API Documentation or examples.

$ npm install gdal-next --save

By default all dependencies are the latest versions and bundled out of the box, but if you would like to link against a pre-installed gdal you can use these flags when installing:

# requires libgdal-dev (debian: sudo apt-get install libgdal-dev)
$ npm install gdal-next --build-from-source --shared_gdal

Sample Usage

Raster

const gdal = require("gdal-next")
const dataset = gdal.open("sample.tif")

console.log("number of bands: " + dataset.bands.count())
console.log("width: " + dataset.rasterSize.x)
console.log("height: " + dataset.rasterSize.y)
console.log("geotransform: " + dataset.geoTransform)
console.log("srs: " + (dataset.srs ? dataset.srs.toWKT() : 'null'))

Vector

const gdal = require("gdal-next")
const dataset = gdal.open("sample.shp")
const layer = dataset.layers.get(0)

console.log("number of features: " + layer.features.count())
console.log("fields: " + layer.fields.getNames())
console.log("extent: " + JSON.stringify(layer.extent))
console.log("srs: " + (layer.srs ? layer.srs.toWKT() : 'null'))

Notes

  • Currently only raster operations are async, everything else will block Node's event loop. The module is not worker-thread compatible so we recommend using worker-farm to push expensive operations to a seperate process.
