Chao,

shapely would do this, though I found it had a bit of a steep learning 
curve. Or you could go the gdal/ogr way, which uses the geos library 
under the hood (if present) to do geometrical operations like 
intersections etc.

cheers,
Vincent.

Depending what you want to do:

Shapely, GDAL/OGR, pyproj, Mapnik, Basemap,...

Hi all,

Is anyone using some python geospatial package that can do jobs like
intersection, etc.  the job is like you automatically extract a region on a
global map etc.

Hi Chao,

What do you want to do exactly?
Did look at GDAL http://www.gdal.org/ ?
