Expose some of the private methods in tiletanic.tilecover as public methods
Opened this issue · 0 comments
The methods in the tilecover module are super useful when working with collections of tiles in a tilescheme for, eg, the purpose of generating geogridded data labels at a particular zoom level--a task which benefits from the tiletanic.tilecover._containg_tiles
method. The other covering methods would be nice to have exposed as well for the sake of transparency into what kind of operation is being done and how; eg, cover_polygonal
would be nice to be able to use in api code to make it clear that the operation specifically deals with Polygon type inputs, while cover_geometry
is still a nice use-all in the case that the input geometries do not define contains
. Would this break too many downstream dependencies?
An example of what I was thinking is here: https://github.com/DigitalGlobe/tiletanic/tree/public-cover-methods
