How to fill area bound by outline coordinates with certain values using shape file in python
I have this shapefile, Amazonia Biome region. The shapefile only seem to contain the outline of this area in latitude and longitude coordinates. What I want to do is to fill this area bound by this outline coordinates with zeros or ones. How do I go about this? Eventually I am trying to create a mask file for Amazonia Biome area in netcdf format.
