Experimental

Find nearest neighbor features and optionally compute distance. Efficient for proximity analysis and distance calculations.

vector nearest distance

## Parameters

Name | Description | Required | Default
--- | --- | --- | ---
`input` | Input vector layer. | Required | `input.shp`
`near` | Near-feature vector layer. | Required | `near.shp`
`max_distance` | Optional maximum search distance. | Optional | —
`output` | Output vector path. | Required | —

## Examples

Computes nearest feature IDs and distances.

    wbe.near(input='input.shp', near='near.shp', output='near_output.shp')
