Clean a MultiPolygon

This function cleans a MultiPolygon, made up of Polygons (with an exterior and any number of interiors), by removing bad points.

Parameters:

  • multipoly (shapely.geometry.multipolygon.MultiPolygon) – the MultiPolygon

  • debug (bool, optional) – print debug messages

  • prefix (str, optional) – change the name of the output debugging CSVs

  • tol (float, optional) – the Euclidean distance that defines two points as being the same (in degrees)

Returns:

cleans – the cleaned MultiPolygon

Return type:

shapely.geometry.multipolygon.MultiPolygon

Notes

According to the Shapely documentation for the function shapely.geometry.polygon.orient() :

“A sign of 1.0 means that the coordinates of the product’s exterior ring will be oriented counter-clockwise.”
