How to really crop a shapefile in GDAL?
Use GDAL’s ogr2ogr command-line utility. If you have a file Europe.shp which has a spatial reference with units of degrees, then use the -clipsrc option with decimal degrees to make a new shapefile: There is also an example at the ogr2ogr page with France used as an example. Ok, so basically clip = crop.

How to create a vector layer in GDAL / OGR?
GDAL/OGR has a Virtual Format spec that allows you to derive layers from flat tables such as a CSV – it does a lot more than that too so go read about it. In the example below we are reading in a CSV with X,Y columns and values. That CSV file is wrapped by an XML file that describes it as an OGR layer.
Is there a command line tool to trim a shapefile?
The ogr2ogr command line tool is an easy way to filter, reproject and trim columns in a shapefile. The workflow below shows how we can approximate the following ogr2ogr command with the OGR api using a decently large parcel shapefile from King County GIS .
Is there a way to crop a GeoTIFF in Python?
Using gdal_translate in the command line seems to do the trick, even though the Python binding doesn’t work. This worked to crop a GeoTiff removing 300 pixel padding from top and left and keeping the next 2000×2000 pixels. gdal_translate -srcwin 300 300 2000 2000 input.tif output.tif
What is the 300 pixel buffer for GDAL?
Each image has a 300 pixel buffer where it overlaps with the image next to it. Goal: I am trying to crop off the 300 pixel buffer off of each image and then use as a raster with GDAL.
