PyPI version Build License

🤔 What is this?

This is a Python package to help with analysis of the potential impacts of climate hazards and other perils on infrastructure networks.

Installation

Install using pip:

pip install nismod-snail

This should bring all dependencies with it. If any of these cause difficulties, try using a conda environment:

conda env create -n snail_env \
    python=3.11 geopandas shapely rasterio python-igraph
conda activate snail_env
pip install nismod-snail

If all worked okay, you should be able to run python and import snail:

$ python
>>> import snail
>>> help(snail)
Help on package snail:

NAME
    snail - snail - the spatial networks impact assessment library

Using the snail command

Once installed, you can use snail directly from the command line.

Split features on a grid defined by its transform, width and height:

snail split \
    --features input.shp \
    --transform 1 0 -180 0 -1 90 \
    --width 360 \
    --height 180 \
    --output split.gpkg

Split features on a grid defined by a GeoTIFF, optionally adding the values from each raster band to each split feature as a new attribute:

snail split \
    --features lines.geojson \
    --raster gridded_data.tif \
    --attribute \
    --output split_lines_with_raster_values.geojson

Split multiple vector feature files along the grids defined by multiple raster files, attributing all raster values:

snail process -fs features.csv -rs rasters.csv

Where at a minimum, each CSV has a column path with the path to each file.

Transform

A note on transform - these six numbers define the transform from i,j cell index (column/row) coordinates in the rectangular grid to x,y geographic coordinates, in the coordinate reference system of the input and output files. They effectively form the first two rows of a 3x3 matrix:

| x |   | a  b  c | | i |
| y | = | d  e  f | | j |
| 1 |   | 0  0  1 | | 1 |

In cases without shear or rotation, a and e define scaling or grid cell size, while c and f define the offset or grid upper-left corner:

| x_scale 0       x_offset |
| 0       y_scale y_offset |
| 0       0       1        |

See rasterio/affine and GDAL Raster Data Model for more documentation.

Development

Clone this repository using GitHub Desktop or on the command line:

git clone [email protected]:nismod/snail.git

Change directory into the root of the project:

cd snail

To create and activate a conda environment with snail's dependencies installed:

conda env create -f environment.yml
conda activate snail-dev

Run this to install the source code as a package:

pip install .

If you're working on snail itself, install it as "editable" along with test and development packages:

pip install -e .[dev]

Run tests using pytest and pytest-cov to check coverage:

pytest --cov=snail --cov-report=term-missing

Run a formatter (black) to fix code formatting:

black src/snail

When working on the tutorial notebooks, it is recommended to install and configure nbstripout so data and outputs are not committed in the notebook files:

nbstripout --install

C++ library

The C++ library in extension/src contains the core routines to find intersections of lines with raster grids.

Before working on the C++ library, fetch source code for Catch2 unit testing library (this is included as a git submodule):

git submodule update --init --recursive

Build the library and run tests:

cmake -Bbuild ./extension
cmake --build build/
./build/run_tests

Run code style auto-formatting:

clang-format -i extension/src/*.{cpp,hpp}

Run lints and checks:

clang-tidy --checks 'cppcoreguidelines-*' extension/src/*.{cpp,hpp}

This may need some includes for pybind11 - which will vary depending on your python installation. For example, with python via miniconda:

clang-tidy --checks 'cppcoreguidelines-*' extension/src/* -- \
    -I/home/username/miniconda3/include/python3.11/ \
    -I./pybind11/include/

Or with C++ headers installed on a Linux machine:

clang-tidy --checks 'cppcoreguidelines-*' extension/src/* -- \
    -std=c++14  \
    -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/c++/11 \
    -I/usr/include/c++/11 \
    -I{$PWD}/extension/extern/pybind11/include \
    -I/usr/include/python3.10

Integration of C++ and Python using pybind11

The snail.core.intersections module is built using pybind11 with scikit-build-core (see docs)

  • extension/src/intersections.cpp defines the module interface using the PYBIND11_MODULE macro
  • pyproject.toml defines the build requirements for snail, which includes pybind11 and scikit-build-core
