Features
========
Rasterio's ``features`` module provides functions to extract shapes of raster
features and to create new features by "burning" shapes into rasters:
``shapes()`` and ``rasterize()``. These functions expose GDAL functions in
a very general way, using iterators over GeoJSON-like Python objects instead of
GIS layers.
