Loading shapefiles into mongodb. This all actually comes from here: http://geospatialpython.com/ But this is wrapped up a little nicer.
# http://geospatialpython.com/
import json, pymongo, shapefile
from json import dumps
database = 'geo'
connection = pymongo.MongoClient()
db = getattr(connection,database)
def renamesh2json(x):
d = x.split(".")
