 The Python shapefile library (pyshp) is a pure Python library and is used to read and write shapefiles. The pyshp library's sole purpose is to work with shapefiles—it only uses the Python standard library. You cannot use it for geometric operations. If you're only working with shapefiles, this one-file-only library is simpler than using GDAL.
