I intend to orphan the pygeoif package. The package description is: PyGeoIf provides a GeoJSON-like protocol for geo-spatial (GIS) vector data. . So when you want to write your own geospatial library with support for this protocol you may use pygeoif as a starting point and build your functionality on top of it . You may think of pygeoif as a ‘shapely ultralight’ which lets you construct geometries and perform very basic operations like reading and writing geometries from/to WKT, constructing line strings out of points, polygons from linear rings, multi polygons from polygons, etc. It was inspired by shapely and implements the geometries in a way that when you are familiar with shapely you feel right at home with pygeoif.
