Where can I find the official docs for gdal/ogr python API?



I am looking for something comprehensive which shows all the classes with descriptions of their attributes, methods and input/output types. So far I have been using https://www.gdal.org/annotated.html but this appears to have been generated for an older version of gdal/ogr. For instance I am using gdal version 2.2.2 and it appears that in the docs the OGRDriver class is not shown, only the GDALdriver class is shown. At the bottom of the link the following is stated:




Created for gdal by doxygen 1.8.8




I'm not sure if 1.8.8 refers to gdal version or doxygen version, in any case I would like to find the proper documentation for the version of gdal I am using?






python gdal ogr

  • If you just want to use Python for GIS with more python like API you can also use Fiona or Rasterio. More information is availible here.

You can find official GDAL documentation at https://gdal.org/



All classes documentations are here:



  • C/C++ API - https://gdal.org/hierarchy.html

  • Python API - https://gdal.org/python/

Also you can read Raster API tutorial and Vector API tutorial



For python there are examples in tutorial, but the best place is GDAL tests, which written in python: https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/tree/master/autotest



Most of python usage are covered by this tests.

Long meetings (6-7 hours a day): Being “babysat” by supervisor

Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP .everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0; up vote 31 down vote favorite 4 I hold a PhD in mechanical engineering with a 7 year background in self-guided, self-paced research including 2 years as a graduate level course instructor and a subject matter expert for various engineering projects in a university setting in the United States. For the last 10-11 months, I am working in a research industry in France where my task is to debug C++ spaghetti code written over a period of several years by my current supervisor. It is a team of 2: just I and my supervisor. Diurnally, I am posed with a "bug of the day" to get out of this C++ code. My supervisor generally gives me about 15-30 minutes to solve it and then accosts me about whether or not the task is completed and then rinses and repeats this until the end of the day.

Confectionery

Prepared foods made with a lot of sugar or other cabohydrates "Sweetmeat" redirects here. For the racehorse, see Sweetmeat (horse). Not to be confused with Sweetbread. This Kransekake is a traditional Scandinavian baker's confection. Confectionery is the art of making confections , which are food items that are rich in sugar and carbohydrates. Exact definitions are difficult. [1] In general, though, confectionery is divided into two broad and somewhat overlapping categories, bakers' confections and sugar confections. [2] Bakers' confectionery, also called flour confections , includes principally sweet pastries, cakes, and similar baked goods. Sugar confectionery includes candies ( sweets in British English), candied nuts, chocolates, chewing gum, bubble gum, pastillage, and other confections that are made primarily of sugar. In some cases, chocolate confections (confections made of chocolate) are treated as a separate category, as are sugar-free versions of
