hi, i'd be interested to see how prepared geometries could speed that up. but i've found this: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/faq/howto_faq.html?highlight=nxutils#test-whether-a-point-is-inside-a-polygon to be _extremely_ fast. you could also stick your points in an rtree (http://pypi.python.org/pypi/Rtree/) and grab the points falling within the bounds, then do the contains() test on the points that pass that. -brent _______________________________________________ Community mailing list Community@lists.gispython.org http://lists.gispython.org/mailman/listinfo/community
