Description: # Stetl - Streaming ETL
        
        Stetl, streaming ETL, pronounced "staedl", is a lightweight ETL-framework for geospatial data conversion.

        # License
        
        Stetl is released under a [GNU GPL v3](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_General_Public_License) license
        (see [LICENSE.txt](LICENSE.txt)).
        
        ## Documentation
        
        The Stetl website and documentation can be found via http://stetl.org.
        For a quick overview read the [5-minute Stetl-introduction](http://www.slideshare.net/justb4/5-minute-intro-to-setl), 
        or a [more detailed presentation](http://www.slideshare.net/justb4/stetl-foss4g20131024v1).
        Stetl was presented at several events like the
        [FOSS4G 2013 in Nottingham](http://2013.foss4g.org) and [GeoPython 2016](http://www.geopython.net).
        
        ## Concepts 
        
        Stetl basically glues together existing parsing and transformation tools like [GDAL/OGR](http://gdal.org), Jinja2 and 
        XSLT with custom Python code. By using native libraries like `libxml2` and `libxslt` (via Python `lxml`) Stetl is speed-optimized.
        
        A configuration file, in Python config `.ini` format, specifies a chained sequence of transformation 
        steps: typically an `Input` connected to one or more `Filters`, and finally to an `Output`.
        At runtime, this sequence is instantiated and run as a linked series of Python objects. These objects are 
        symbolically specified (by their module/class name) and parameterized in the config file. 
        Via the `stetl -c <config file>`  command, the transformation is executed.
        
        Stetl has been proven to handle 10's of millions of GML objects without any memory issues.
        This is achieved through a technique called "streaming and splitting". 
        For example: using the `OgrPostgisInput` module an GML stream can be generated from the database.
        A component called the `GmlSplitter` can split this stream into manageable chunks (like 20000 features) 
        and feed this upstream into the ETL chain.
        
        ## Use Cases
        
        Stetl has been found particularly useful for complex GML-related ETL-cases, like those found
        within [EU INSPIRE](http://inspire.ec.europa.eu/) Data Harmonization and the transformation
        of GML/XML-based National geo-datasets to for example PostGIS.
        
        Most of the data conversions within the [Dutch NLExtract Project](https://github.com/nlextract/NLExtract) apply Stetl.
        
        Stetl also proved to be very effective in [IoT-related transformations involving the SensorWeb/SOS](https://github.com/Geonovum/smartemission).
        
        ## Examples
        
        Browse all examples under the [examples dir](examples). 
        Best is to start with the [basic examples](examples/basics)
        
        ## Installation
         
        Stetl can be installed via PyPi `pip install stetl` and recently as a [Stetl Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/justb4/stetl).
        More on [installation in the documentation](http://www.stetl.org/en/latest/install.html).

        ## Origins
        
        Stetl originated in the INSPIRE-FOSS project: [2009-2013 now archived](https://github.com/justb4/inspire-foss). 
        Since then Stetl evolved into a wider use like
        transforming [Dutch GML-based Open Datasets](https://github.com/nlextract/NLExtract) such as IMGEO/BGT (Large Scale Topography) 
        and IMKAD/BRK (Cadastral Data).
        
        ## Finally
        
        The word "stetl" is also an alternative writing for "shtetl":
        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stetl : "...Material things were neither disdained nor
        extremely praised in the shtetl. Learning and education were the ultimate measures of 
        worth in the eyes of the community,
        while money was secondary to status..."

        This project would not be possible without the great work of Frank Warmerdam and other
        GDAL/OGR developers (http://gdal.org).
        
        Plus the people that brought Python, PostGIS (Paul Ramsey et al.), Jinja2, lxml and the libs
        like GEOS, Proj, libxml2 and libxslt.
        
        We are mainly standing on the shoulders of these giants.
