Implementation Reference
- src/gis_mcp/shapely_functions.py:335-351 (handler)The core handler function for the 'translate_geometry' MCP tool. It parses WKT input geometry, applies translation using shapely.affinity.translate with xoff, yoff, and optional zoff offsets, and returns the resulting WKT geometry in a success response dictionary. Errors are logged and raised.
