  • out_vec_file – the output vector file path

  • out_vec_lyr – the output vector layer name

  • out_col_name – the output boolean column specifying those features which intersect with the vec_sel_lyr layer.

  • out_format – the output vector format (e.g., GPKG).

  • tmp_col_name – The name of a temporary column added to the input layer used to ensure there are no duplicated features in the output layer. The default name is: “tmp_sel_join_fid”.

  • vec_in_epsg – Optionally provide the epsg code for the input vector layer.

  • vec_sel_epsg – Optionally provide the epsg code for the selection vector layer.

Export Attribute Table

rsgislib.vectorattrs.export_vec_attrs_to_csv(vec_file: str, vec_lyr: str, output_file: str)

A function which exports the attribute table from a vector layer to a CSV file.

Parameters:

  • vec_file – The input vector file path
