A basic implementation of the __geo_interface__
PyGeoIf provides a GeoJSON-like protocol for geo-spatial (GIS) vector data.
So when you want to write your own geospatilal library with support for this protocol you may use pygeoif as a starting point and build your functionality on top of it
You may think of pygeoif as a shapely ultralight which lets you construct geometries and perform very basic operations like reading and writing geometries from/to WKT, constructing line strings out of points, polygons from linear rings, multi polygons from polygons, etc. It was inspired by shapely and implements the geometries in a way that when you are familiar with shapely you feel right at home with pygeoif
It was written to provide clean and python only geometries for fastkml
