.. _reference: Reference =========================== GeoSeries --------- The following Shapely methods and attributes are available on ``GeoSeries`` objects: .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.area .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.bounds .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.length .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.geom_type .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.distance .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.representative_point .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.exterior .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.interiors `Unary Predicates` .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.is_empty .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.is_ring .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.is_simple .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.is_valid `Binary Predicates` .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.geom_almost_equals .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.contains .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.crosses .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.disjoint .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.geom_equals .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.intersects .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.touches .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.within `Set-theoretic Methods` .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.difference .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.intersection .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.symmetric_difference .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.union `Constructive Methods` .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.buffer .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.boundary .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.centroid .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.convex_hull .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.envelope .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.simplify `Affine transformations` .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.rotate .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.scale .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.skew .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.translate `Aggregating methods` .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.unary_union Additionally, the following methods are implemented: .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.from_file .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.to_crs .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoSeries.plot .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.total_bounds .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoSeries.__geo_interface__ Methods of pandas ``Series`` objects are also available, although not all are applicable to geometric objects and some may return a ``Series`` rather than a ``GeoSeries`` result. The methods ``copy()``, ``align()``, ``isnull()`` and ``fillna()`` have been implemented specifically for ``GeoSeries`` and are expected to work correctly. GeoDataFrame ------------ A ``GeoDataFrame`` is a tablular data structure that contains a column called ``geometry`` which contains a `GeoSeries``. Currently, the following methods are implemented for a ``GeoDataFrame``: .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoDataFrame.from_file .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoDataFrame.from_postgis .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoDataFrame.to_crs .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoDataFrame.to_file .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoDataFrame.to_json .. automethod:: geopandas.GeoDataFrame.plot .. autoattribute:: geopandas.GeoDataFrame.__geo_interface__ All pandas ``DataFrame`` methods are also available, although they may not operate in a meaningful way on the ``geometry`` column and may not return a ``GeoDataFrame`` result even when it would be appropriate to do so.
