I want to re-target the Python versions > 3.2. I believe I wrote the project originally under Python 2.7, but it's so small it should be easy to update.

It would be nice if these scripts were path independent.

By which I mean... it would be nice if these scripts were easy to run from Cron, without anything in them assuming things about the local path.

Perhaps there are some other utilities that would fit well here:

csv2geotiff
csv2netcdf
csv2netcdf3
csv2netcdf4

Their API, and usage statements could be more uniform.

Also... should they create their output dir, if it doesn't yet exist?

Are they both callable remotely, or do they depend on the local path?

This is such a simple script, if it doesn't work in all major Python releases, it can probably be made to do so pretty easily.

This would be easier to import from another script if it were a single class, with no globals.

It is now totally lacking for csv2shp.

Making something like "plotting CSV points"

csv2plots
plot_geo_csv_points
map_csv_locations
csv2map

Run pep8 and pylint on this script, to check its formatting.

Perhaps the Equirectangular projection?
