Bordado
Create, manipulate, and split geographic coordinates
Bordado (Portuguese for “embroidery”) is a Python package for creating, manipulating, and splitting geographic and Cartesian coordinates. It can generate coordinates at regular intervals by specifying the number of points or the spacing between points. Bordado takes care of adjusting the spacing to make sure it matches the specified domain/region. It also contains functions for splitting coordinates into spatial blocks and more.

Bordado is a part of the Fatiando a Terra project.
Look familiar?
Many of the functions here used to be in Verde. They were moved to Bordado to make them more accessible without all the extra dependencies that Verde requires. We have also improved and expanded most of the functions ported from Verde.
Project status#
Bordado is ready for use but still changing. This means that we are still adding a lot of new features, and sometimes we make changes to the ones we already have while we try to improve the software based on users’ experience, test new ideas, take better design decisions, etc. Some of these changes could be backwards incompatible. Keep that in mind before you update Harmonica to a newer version.
We welcome feedback and ideas! This is a great time to bring new ideas on how we can improve the project. Join the conversation or submit issues on GitHub.
