The Python package for making CAP alerts visualizable

Features

• GeoJSON Creation: Visualize your alerts in the GeoJSON format.

Getting Started

1. Installation

pip install cap2geojson

2A. Using the API

We can convert the CAP XML to GeoJSON using the transform(cap) method:

• cap: The CAP alert XML string contents.

from cap2geojson import transform

with open(<cap-alert-directory>, 'r') as f:
    cap = f.read()

result = transform(cap)

2B. Using the CLI

We can convert a CAP alert directly to a GeoJSON file using the following command:

cap2geojson transform <cap-alert-directory>
