geopandas 0.10.0

v0.10.0

on Python PyPI

Highlights of this release:

• A new sjoin_nearest() method to join based on proximity, with the
  ability to set a maximum search radius (#1865). In addition, the sindex
  attribute gained a new method for a "nearest" spatial index query (#1865,
  #2053).
• A new explore() method on GeoDataFrame and GeoSeries with native support
  for interactive visualization based on folium / leaflet.js (#1953)
• The geopandas.sjoin()/overlay()/clip() functions are now also
  available as methods on the GeoDataFrame (#2141, #1984, #2150).

New features and improvements:

• Add support for pandas' value_counts() method for geometry dtype (#2047).
• The explode() method has a new ignore_index keyword (consistent with
  pandas' explode method) to reset the index in the result, and a new
  index_parts keywords to control whether a cumulative count indexing the
  parts of the exploded multi-geometries should be added (#1871).
• points_from_xy() is now available as a GeoSeries method from_xy (#1936).
• The to_file() method will now attempt to detect the driver (if not
  specified) based on the extension of the provided filename, instead of
  defaulting to ESRI Shapefile (#1609).
• Support for the storage_options keyword in read_parquet() for
  specifying filesystem-specific options (e.g. for S3) based on fsspec (#2107).
• The read/write functions now support ~ (user home directory) expansion (#1876).
• Support the convert_dtypes() method from pandas to preserve the
  GeoDataFrame class (#2115).
• Support WKB values in the hex format in GeoSeries.from_wkb() (#2106).
• Update the estimate_utm_crs() method to handle crossing the antimeridian
  with pyproj 3.1+ (#2049).
• Improved heuristic to decide how many decimals to show in the repr based on
  whether the CRS is projected or geographic (#1895).
• Switched the default for geocode() from GeoCode.Farm to the Photon
  geocoding API (https://photon.komoot.io) (#2007).

Deprecations and compatibility notes:

• The op= keyword of sjoin() to indicate which spatial predicate to use
  for joining is being deprecated and renamed in favor of a new predicate=
  keyword (#1626).
• The cascaded_union attribute is deprecated, use unary_union instead (#2074).
• Constructing a GeoDataFrame with a duplicated "geometry" column is now
  disallowed. This can also raise an error in the pd.concat(.., axis=1)
  function if this results in duplicated active geometry columns (#2046).
• The explode() method currently returns a GeoSeries/GeoDataFrame with a
  MultiIndex, with an additional level with indices of the parts of the
  exploded multi-geometries. For consistency with pandas, this will change in
  the future and the new index_parts keyword is added to control this.

Bug fixes:

• Fix in the clip() function to correctly clip MultiPoints instead of
  leaving them intact when partly outside of the clip bounds (#2148).
• Fix GeoSeries.isna() to correctly return a boolean Series in case of an
  empty GeoSeries (#2073).
• Fix the GeoDataFrame constructor to preserve the geometry name when the
  argument is already a GeoDataFrame object (i.e. GeoDataFrame(gdf)) (#2138).
• Fix loss of the values' CRS when setting those values as a column
  (GeoDataFrame.__setitem__) (#1963)
• Fix in GeoDataFrame.apply() to preserve the active geometry column name
  (#1955).
• Fix in sjoin() to not ignore the suffixes in case of a right-join
  (how="right) (#2065).
• Fix GeoDataFrame.explode() with a MultiIndex (#1945).
• Fix the handling of missing values in to/from_wkb and to_from_wkt (#1891).
• Fix to_file() and to_json() when DataFrame has duplicate columns to
  raise an error (#1900).
• Fix bug in the colors shown with user-defined classification scheme (#2019).
• Fix handling of the path_effects keyword in plot() (#2127).
• Fix GeoDataFrame.explode() to preserve attrs (#1935)

Notes on (optional) dependencies:

• GeoPandas 0.9.0 dropped support for Python 3.6 and pandas 0.24. Further,
  the minimum required versions are numpy 1.18, shapely 1.6, fiona 1.8,
  matplotlib 3.1 and pyproj 2.2.
• Plotting with a classification schema now requires mapclassify version >=
  2.4 (#1737).
• Compatibility fixes for the latest numpy in combination with Shapely 1.7 (#2072)
• Compatibility fixes for the upcoming Shapely 1.8 (#2087).
• Compatibility fixes for the latest PyGEOS (#1872, #2014) and matplotlib
