Pandarus is a GIS software toolkit for regionalized life cycle assessment. It is designed to work with brightway LCA framework, brightway2-regional, and Constructive Geometries.

For more information, including installation instructions, see the online documentation, including a usage example. Pandarus is only compatible with >= Python 3.5.

Pandarus provides the following functionality:

• Overlay two vector datasets, calculating the areas of each combination of features using the Mollweide projection.
• Calculate the area of the geometric difference (the areas present in one input file but not in the other) of one vector dataset with another vector dataset.
• Calculate statistics such as min, mean, and max when overlaying a raster dataset with a vector dataset.
• Normalize raster datasets, including use of compatible nodata values
• Vectorization of raster datasets

• appdirs
• fiona
• numpy
• pyproj
• rasterio
• rasterstats
• Rtree
• shapely

Pandarus is developed by Chris Mutel as part of his work at the Technology Assessment Group at the Paul Scherrer Institut and previously at the Ecological Systems Design group at ETH Zürich.
