Documentation for the geopandas library

GeoPandas is a project to add support for geographic data to pandas objects. It currently implements `GeoSeries` and `GeoDataFrame` types which are subclasses of `pandas.Series` and `pandas.DataFrame` respectively. GeoPandas objects can act on shapely geometry objects and perform geometric operations.

GeoPandas geometry operations are cartesian. The coordinate reference system (crs) can be stored as an attribute on an object, and is automatically set when loading from a file. Objects may be transformed to new coordinate systems with the `to_crs()` method. There is currently no enforcement of like coordinates for operations, but that may change in the future.

This package contains the GeoPandas documentation.
