Who is this for
---------------

This is for anyone who wishes to easily render polygons, especially 'floating' or curved polygons within Google Earth.

I work in the aviation industry and needed a reliable way to process_points models of our airspace. It its useful for
creating models of airways and controlled airspace. It can be used for anything that takes your fancy!

Usage v3
-----

### Recommendations

KML+ easily integrates with the fantastic [Simplekml](https://pypi.org/project/simplekml/) library and I highly
recommend using it in conjunction with KML+ for the best experience.

#### Coordinates

Coordinates should always be passed as a single or multiple strings within a list in x, y, z(optional) format. Both
Degrees Minutes Seconds (DDMMSS.ss) and Decimal Degres (DD.dd) are accepted. DMS should be suffixed with N, W, S or E.
Decimal degrees are suffixed using -/+ convention.

While a coordinate string must be passed using the same type of coordinate, lists can contain a mixture of DMS and DD
coordinates and will convert appropriately.

If no z value is provided, defaults to 0.0.

Example

```
[
    '553124N 0045830W',
    '552040N 0042722W',
    '551848N 0044702W',
    '553124N 0045830W'
]
```

#### Coordinates containing Arcs

When creating a curved segment of a polygon, the string should be passed as follows -

'start=[starting_coordinate], end=[ending_coordinate], centre=[centre_coordinate], direction=[clockwise/anticlockwise]'

Example -

```
[
     'start=54.32111 -3.98721, end=54.13447 -3.89329, centre=54.31667 -3.41806, direction=anticlockwise',
     '54.13444 -3.89333',
     '54.17417 -4.14556',
     'start=54.17418 -4.14551, end=54.23696 -4.17352, centre=54.31667 -3.41806, direction=clockwise',
     '54.23694 -4.17361',
     '54.32111 -3.98722',
]
```

### Classes and functions

v3.0 has stripped back to one single class which contains functions to process_points points, circles, cylinders,
polygons, polyhedrons and linestrings.

#### KmlPlus (Class)

```
from kmlplus.kml import KmlPlus

KmlPlus(self, save_name='KmlPlus', output_path=None)
```

KmlPlus is the class through which you process_points your 2D and 3D geometries.

* save_name accepts a string and is used for naming the resulting .kml file.
* output_path accepts a string representing the directory the resulting .kml shall be saved to.

#### KmlPlus (functions)

linestring(coordinate_list, **kwargs)

The linestring function updates the kml file with a KML linestring feature.
