This example is quite simple but OGR can become quite verbose as your script becomes more complex.

PyShp

PyShp is a simple, pure Python library that reads and writes shapefiles. It doesn't do any geometry operations and only uses Python's standard library. It's contained in a single file that's easy to move around, squeeze onto small embedded platforms, and modify. It is also compatible with Python 3. It also implements __geo_interface__. The PyShp module is available on PyPI.

Let's repeat the previous OGR example with PyShp:

>>> import shapefile >>> shp = shapefile.Reader("point") >>> for feature in shp.shapeRecords(): ... point = feature.shape.points[0] ... rec = feature.record[0] ... print point[0], point[1], rec ... 1.0 1.0 First 3.0 1.0 Second 4.0 3.0 Third 2.0 2.0 Fourth 0.0 0.0 Appended
