Python implementation of R package gridmappr for automated gridmap layout generation. Pygridmappr automates the generation of small multiple gridmap layouts. Given a set of geographic point locations, it creates a grid with specified row and column dimensions, placing each point in a grid cell such that the distance between points in geographic space and grid space is minimized.

This implementation maintains full feature parity with the original R package and replicates the mathematical logic as faithfully as possible.

No commercial features or aspirations - this is a passion project, something I’ve been fooling around with on and off for decades.

There’s a “Top” view too with an LLM edited front page & summary, and categorized views for a large number of topics - see the Directory. A few more buried features to explore, but the fundamental use case is pop in, scan, exit - fast and concise.
