+        
+        Shapely is a BSD-licensed Python package for manipulation and analysis of
+        planar geometric objects. It is not concerned with data formats or coordinate
+        systems.  It is based on the widely deployed GEOS_ (the engine of PostGIS_) and
+        JTS_ (from which GEOS is ported) libraries. This C dependency is traded for the
+        ability to execute with blazing speed.
+        
+        In a nutshell: Shapely lets you do PostGIS-ish stuff outside the context of a
+        database using idiomatic Python. For more details, see:
+        
+        * Shapely wiki_
+        * Shapely manual_
+        * Shapely `example apps`_
+        
+        Dependencies
+        ------------
+        
+        Shapely 1.2 depends on:
+        
+        * Python >=2.5,<3
+        * libgeos_c >=3.1 (3.0 and below have not been tested, YMMV)
+        
+        Installation
+        ------------
+        
+        Windows users should use the executable installer, which contains the required
+        GEOS DLL. Other users should acquire libgeos_c by any means, make sure that it
+        is on the system library path, and install from the Python package index::
+        
+        $ pip install Shapely
+        
+        or from a source distribution with the setup script::
+        
+        $ python setup.py install
+        
+        Usage
+        -----
+        
+        Here is the canonical example of building an approximately circular patch by
+        buffering a point::
+        
+        >>> from shapely.geometry import Point
+        >>> patch = Point(0.0, 0.0).buffer(10.0)
+        >>> patch
+        <shapely.geometry.polygon.Polygon object at 0x...>
+        >>> patch.area
+        313.65484905459385
+        
+        See the manual_ for comprehensive usage snippets and the dissolve.py and
+        intersect.py `example apps`_.
+        
+        Integration
+        -----------
+        
+        Shapely does not read or write data files, but it can serialize and deserialize
+        using several well known formats and protocols. The shapely.wkb and shapely.wkt
+        modules provide dumpers and loaders inspired by Python's pickle module.::
+        
+        >>> from shapely.wkt import dumps, loads
+        >>> dumps(loads('POINT (0 0)'))
+        'POINT (0.0000000000000000 0.0000000000000000)'
+        
+        All linear objects, such as the rings of a polygon (like ``patch`` above),
+        provide the Numpy array interface.::
+        
+        >>> from numpy import asarray
+        >>> ag = asarray(patch.exterior)
+        >>> ag
+        array([[  1.00000000e+01,   0.00000000e+00],
+        [  9.95184727e+00,  -9.80171403e-01],
+        [  9.80785280e+00,  -1.95090322e+00],
+        ...
+        [  1.00000000e+01,   0.00000000e+00]])
+        
+        That yields a numpy array of [x, y] arrays. This is not always exactly what one
+        wants for plotting shapes with Matplotlib, so Shapely 1.2 adds a `xy` property
+        for getting separate arrays of coordinate x and y values.::
+        
+        >>> x, y = patch.exterior.xy
+        >>> ax = asarray(x)
+        >>> ax
+        array([  1.00000000e+01,   9.95184727e+00,   9.80785280e+00,  ...])
+        
+        Numpy arrays can also be adapted to Shapely linestrings::
+        
+        >>> from shapely.geometry import asLineString
+        >>> asLineString(ag).length
+        62.806623139095073
+        >>> asLineString(ag).wkt
+        'LINESTRING (10.0000000000000000 0.0000000000000000, ...)'
+        
+        Testing
+        -------
+        
+        Shapely uses a Zope-stye suite of unittests and doctests, excercised via
+        setup.py.::
+        
+        $ python setup.py test
+        
+        Nosetests won't run the tests properly; Zope doctest suites are not currently
+        supported well by nose.
+        
+        Support
