Planetary Geologic Mapping Python Toolbox
Esri Python Toolbox created by the Planetary Geologic Mapping group at the Astrogeology Science Center, which support common mapping workflows. It has been tested using ArcPro 3.0. Routines include Merge Files, Build Polygons, New Geodatabase, Longitude Conversion, Basemap Clip 'n' Ship, and Topology Check.
Python toolboxes can be executed from where ever they are saved locally. For continued use, we recommend adding it as a Toolbox.
These tools are intended to be used in support of planetary geologic mappers funded by NASA to create USGS standard-compliant maps, but may be used by anyone. The Spatial Analyst and 3D Analyst extensions must be enabled to used some of these tools. There is additional information available in the Tool Help section for each tool GUI.
Bugs should be reported as Issues, along with version of Arc, operating system, and datsets being used.
Suggestions for updates and contributions are encouraged. Create an issue or email [email protected].
Many of these routines were initially developed by Trent Hare, or were based on suggestions from Jim Skinner and Corey Fortezzo. This work was funded by the Planetary Geologic Mapping Program under the USGS-NASA PSDI IAA. This software was reviewed and approved for release in IPDS IP-139319.
