Is it possible to use Flatgeobuf in Python?

260 Views Asked by At

I would like to read from / write to flatgeobuffers from a Python GIS application. My understanding is that this technology can only be used so in JavaScript and TypeScript (of course the compilation stage is language-agnostic insofar as the official CLI does that just fine).

It there a known technique or workaround to read from / write to flatgeobuffers in Python?

It appears that Fiona and subsequently Geopandas can read and write FlatGeobuf. GDAL is the backend driver doing the work.
