The module is designed to translate between tile indices (zoom, row, column = ZYX) and
map coordinates (e.g. latitute, longitude).

Tilematrix supports **metatiling** and **tile buffers**. Furthermore it makes
heavy use of shapely_ and it can also generate ``Affine`` objects per tile which
facilitates working with rasterio_ for tile based data reading and writing.

It is very similar to mercantile_ but besides of supporting spherical mercator
tile pyramids, it also supports geodetic (WGS84) tile pyramids.

CLI
---

This package ships with a command line tool ``tmx`` which provides the following
subcommands:

* ``bounds``: Print bounds of given Tile.
* ``bbox``: Print bounding box geometry of given Tile.
* ``tile``: Print Tile covering given point.
* ``tiles``: Print Tiles covering given bounds.

Geometry outputs can either be formatted as ``WKT`` or ``GeoJSON``. For example
the following command will print a valid ``GeoJSON`` representing all tiles
for zoom level 1 of the ``geodetic`` WMTS grid:

.. code-block:: shell

    $ tmx -f GeoJSON tiles -- 1 -180 -90 180 90
    {
      "type": "FeatureCollection",
      "features": [
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[-90.0, 0.0], [-90.0, 90.0], [-180.0, 90.0], [-180.0, 0.0], [-90.0, 0.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 0, "row": 0, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"},
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[0.0, 0.0], [0.0, 90.0], [-90.0, 90.0], [-90.0, 0.0], [0.0, 0.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 1, "row": 0, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"},
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[90.0, 0.0], [90.0, 90.0], [0.0, 90.0], [0.0, 0.0], [90.0, 0.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 2, "row": 0, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"},
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[180.0, 0.0], [180.0, 90.0], [90.0, 90.0], [90.0, 0.0], [180.0, 0.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 3, "row": 0, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"},
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[-90.0, -90.0], [-90.0, 0.0], [-180.0, 0.0], [-180.0, -90.0], [-90.0, -90.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 0, "row": 1, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"},
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[0.0, -90.0], [0.0, 0.0], [-90.0, 0.0], [-90.0, -90.0], [0.0, -90.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 1, "row": 1, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"},
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[90.0, -90.0], [90.0, 0.0], [0.0, 0.0], [0.0, -90.0], [90.0, -90.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 2, "row": 1, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"},
        {"geometry": {"coordinates": [[[180.0, -90.0], [180.0, 0.0], [90.0, 0.0], [90.0, -90.0], [180.0, -90.0]]], "type": "Polygon"}, "properties": {"col": 3, "row": 1, "zoom": 1}, "type": "Feature"}
      ]
    }



Print ``WKT`` representation of tile ``4 15 23``:

.. code-block:: shell

    $ tmx bbox 4 15 23
    POLYGON ((90 -90, 90 -78.75, 78.75 -78.75, 78.75 -90, 90 -90))


Also, tiles can have buffers around called ``pixelbuffer``:

.. code-block:: shell

    $ tmx --pixelbuffer 10 bbox 4 15 23
    POLYGON ((90.439453125 -90, 90.439453125 -78.310546875, 78.310546875 -78.310546875, 78.310546875 -90, 90.439453125 -90))


Print ``GeoJSON`` representation of tile ``4 15 23`` on a ``mercator`` tile
pyramid:

.. code-block:: shell

    $ tmx -output_format GeoJSON -grid mercator bbox 4 15 15
    {"type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [[[20037508.342789203, -20037508.3427892], [20037508.342789203, -17532819.799940553], [17532819.799940553, -17532819.799940553], [17532819.799940553, -20037508.3427892], [20037508.342789203, -20037508.3427892]]]}
