a sprint. Damon Burgett and I were sitting together working yesterday and he
says, "I keep looking for the inverse of the xy function in mercantile, but
it's never there." It's true, the module is missing a function to convert web
mercator x and y to longitude and latitude. He wrote it, and some tests that
numbers round trip properly through &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;xy&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code class="docutils literal"&gt;lnglat&lt;/code&gt;, then made a pull
request. I merged it, tagged it, pushed to GitHub. A minute later Travis-CI had
uploaded mercantile 0.11.0 to the Python package index and we were pulling it
back into our sprint work through an updated pip requirements file. I love how
frictionless Python development and packaging can be now.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I've got limited time for Rasterio and GDAL issues this week. I can catch up
a bit in the evenings, but I must prioritize getting extra rest before
Saturday's race.  Apologies if I don't respond until Monday.&lt;/p&gt;</description><category>mapping</category><category>mercantile</category><category>mercator</category><category>python</category><category>tiles</category><category>work</category><guid>https://sgillies.net/2017/10/18/mercantile-0-11-0.html</guid><pubDate>Wed, 18 Oct 2017 13:32:11 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
