A Python library for enforcing polygon ring winding order in GeoJSON

The [GeoJSON](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7946) spec mandates the [right hand rule](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7946#section-3.1.6):

> A linear ring MUST follow the right-hand rule with respect to the area it bounds, i.e., exterior rings are counterclockwise, and holes are clockwise.

This helps you generate compliant Polygon and MultiPolygon geometries.

Note: Co-ordinates in the input data are assumed to be WGS84 with (lon, lat) ordering, [as per RFC 7946](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7946#section-3.1.1). Input with co-ordinates using any other CRS may lead to unexpected results.

## Installation

```
pip install geojson-rewind
```

## Usage

### As a Library

Enforce RFC 7946 ring winding order (input/output is a GeoJSON string):

```py
>>> from geojson_rewind import rewind

>>> input = """{
...      "geometry": {   "coordinates": [   [   [100, 0],
...                                             [100, 1],
...                                             [101, 1],
...                                             [101, 0],
...                                             [100, 0]]],
...                      "type": "Polygon"},
...      "properties": {"foo": "bar"},
...      "type": "Feature"}"""

>>> output = rewind(input)

>>> output
'{"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[100, 0], [101, 0], [101, 1], [100, 1], [100, 0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"foo": "bar"}, "type": "Feature"}'

>>> type(output)
<class 'str'>
```

Enforce RFC 7946 ring winding order (input/output is a python dict):

```py
>>> from geojson_rewind import rewind

>>> input = {
...     'geometry': {   'coordinates': [   [   [100, 0],
...                                            [100, 1],
...                                            [101, 1],
...                                            [101, 0],
...                                            [100, 0]]],
...                     'type': 'Polygon'},
...     'properties': {'foo': 'bar'},
...     'type': 'Feature'}

>>> output = rewind(input)

>>> output
{'geometry': {'coordinates': [[[100, 0], [101, 0], [101, 1], [100, 1], [100, 0]]], 'type': 'Polygon'}, 'properties': {'foo': 'bar'}, 'type': 'Feature'}

>>> type(output)
<class 'dict'>
```

## On the Console

```sh
# Enforce ring winding order on a GeoJSON file
$ rewind in.geojson > out.geojson

# fetch GeoJSON from the web and enforce ring winding order
$ curl "https://myserver.com/in.geojson" | rewind
```
