        Installation
        ------------
        
        .. code:: sh
        
            pip install dempy
        
        WARNING: Use at your own risk.
        
        Objective
        ---------
        
        This package is a collection of useful tool to work with geospatial type
        of data within Python. Tools for working with rasters, shapefile,
        pointcloud data, and more advanced dem analysis tool such as fourier
        decomposition.
        
        Some of the tools included are:
        
        -  geoTIFF import
        -  DEM detrend with linear plane
        -  DEM filtering (FFT or Convolution)
        -  Generating random DEM with diamondSquare (implemented in Cython)
        -  Derive morphometric data
        -  plotting DEM
        -  derive Blowing snow terrain parameter:
        -  Tabler's drift profile (Tabler, R.D., 1975. Predicting Profiles of
           Snowdrifts in Topographic Catchments. In *Proceedings of the 43rd
           Annual Western Snow Conference*. San Diego, CA, pp. 87–97.)
        -  Winstral Sx (Winstral, A., Elder, K. & Davis, R.E., 2002. Spatial
           Snow Modeling of Wind-Redistributed Snow Using Terrain-Based
           Parameters. *Journal of Hydrometeorology*, 3(5), pp.524–538.)
        
        Requirements
        ------------
        
        Requires a few libraries such as laspy, gdal, cython, geopandas ...
