GEOSGeometry.hex Returns the WKB of this Geometry in hexadecimal form. Please note that the SRID value is not included in this representation because it is not a part of the OGC specification (use the GEOSGeometry.hexewkb property instead).

GEOSGeometry.hasz Returns a boolean indicating whether the geometry is three-dimensional.

GEOSGeometry.geom_typeid Returns the GEOS geometry type identification number. The following table shows the value for each geometry type: Geometry ID Point 0 LineString 1 LinearRing 2 Polygon 3 MultiPoint 4 MultiLineString 5 MultiPolygon 6 GeometryCollection 7

GEOSGeometry.geom_type Returns a string corresponding to the type of geometry. For example: >>> pnt = GEOSGeometry('POINT(5 23)') >>> pnt.geom_type 'Point'

GEOSGeometry.geojson Alias for GEOSGeometry.json.

GEOSGeometry.extent This property returns the extent of this geometry as a 4-tuple, consisting of (xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax).

GEOSGeometry.ewkt Returns the “extended” Well-Known Text of the geometry. This representation is specific to PostGIS and is a superset of the OGC WKT standard. [1] Essentially the SRID is prepended to the WKT representation, for example SRID=4326;POINT(5 23). Note The output from this property does not include the 3dm, 3dz, and 4d information that PostGIS supports in its EWKT representations.

GEOSGeometry.ewkb Return the EWKB representation of this Geometry as a Python buffer. This is an extension of the WKB specification that includes any SRID value that are a part of this geometry.

GEOSGeometry.equals_exact(other, tolerance=0) Returns true if the two geometries are exactly equal, up to a specified tolerance. The tolerance value should be a floating point number representing the error tolerance in the comparison, e.g., poly1.equals_exact(poly2, 0.001) will compare equality to within one thousandth of a unit.

GEOSGeometry.equals(other) Returns True if the DE-9IM intersection matrix for the two geometries is T*F**FFF*.
