GeoJSON_Validation

Validate GeoJSON with the JSON-schema specification

This requires the jsonschema package.

Usage

There are two main functions which both require the GeoJSON to be read as a Python dictionary. If the geojson can't be read into a Python dictionary then the data is invalid anyway. Note that when the package is imported it automatically loads the schema into memory to avoid having to reload each time a scan is done. The schema itself is small so this shouldn't be a big issue.

geojson_dict_is_valid(geojson[, raise_on_error=False])

This will simply return a True or False whether the GeoJSON is valid or not. Optionally if raise_on_error is True a jsonschema.ValidationError will be raised.

validate_geojson_by_part(geojson)

This function is designed more for actual diagnostics. It will iterate over the GeoJSON object from the lowest level and return the first invalid part of the schema it can find. If the schema is valid it will return None. To fully fix a large GeoJSON schema this may have to be run multiple times.
