gdstk (C++ library for manipulation of GDSII and OASIS files. ) Gdstk (GDSII Tool Kit) is a C++ library for creation and manipulation of GDSII and OASIS files. It is also available as a Python module meant to be a successor to Gdspy. Key features for the creation of complex CAD layouts are included: Boolean operations on polygons (AND, OR, NOT, XOR) based on clipping algorithm, Polygon offset (inward and outward rescaling of polygons), Efficient point-in-polygon solutions for large array sets. Typical applications of Gdstk are in the fields of electronic chip design, planar lightwave circuit design, and mechanical engineering.
