README
This code finds the Landsat WRS-2 path/row which contains a given latitude/longitude co-ordinate.
# Dependencies #
* [GDAL/ORG](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/GDAL/)
* [Shapely](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Shapely)
* Landsat WRS-2 Path/Row Shapefiles - download from [USGS site](https://www.usgs.gov/media/files/landsat-wrs-2-descending-path-row-shapefile)
# How to use #
>>> from get_wrs import ConvertToWRS
>>> conv = ConvertToWRS()
>>> conv.get_wrs(50.14, -1.7)
[{'path': 202, 'row': 25}]
>>> conv.get_wrs(50.14, -1.43)
[{'path': 201, 'row': 25}, {'path': 202, 'row': 25}]
If you can't put the shapefile in the same folder as the code, then you can pass the path to the shapefile as an argument - for example: `ConvertToWRS(shapefile="\path\to\shapefile.shp")`.
More details are available in the docstrings (try `ConvertToWRS?` or `conv.get_wrs?` in IPython) and in my original [blog post](#).
