What it does

Contains a variety of parsing function to view the shape.geojson files in the districts submodule in different ways...

• View each state/district as a grid of 1s and 0s (where 1 marks the point as being part of the state/district)
• Generate a list of points for each state with the districts marked districtly
• Generate a list of points for the district

Running it

Initialize/Update the submodule

$ git submodule init --recursive
$ git submodule update --recursive

In the root of the repo, you would find CommandMaster.py. Some preprocessing work is needed before running the parsing functions:

$ python CommandMaster.py
