Bumps geopandas from 1.1.4 to 1.2.0.

Release notes

Sourced from geopandas's releases.

v1.2.0

What's Changed

New features and improvements:

• Static plotting in GeoPandas has been re-implemented. The new tooling shall be mostly backwards compatible while bringing a set of enhancements:

  • Categorical plotting now allows dict-based mapping of categories to colors and other styles.
  • Legends now reflect the geometry type and complete set of styles, not just a color.
  • Plotting of continuous variables with a classification scheme can now produce a colorbar instead of a categorical legend when using colorbar=True within legend_kwds.
  • vmin and vmax keywords are supported when scheme is defined, not ignored.
  • When using categorical colormap with categorical plots, colors are now assigned in order to optimize the contrast of the resulting map.
  • Colorbar size is automatically adjusted to be approximately the size of the plot.
  • Colorbar now indicates extensions if the vmin and/or vmax clip the values.
  • Legends are created automatically by matplotlib. This also means that you can create a single legend from a layered map by calling ax.legend() directly.
  • GeoPandas now labels axes using the information on units from CRS. This can be controlled via the add_labels keyword.
  • Static plots can include a basemap defined by the tiles keyword, exposing contextily.add_basemap from within the plot method. Requires contextily package to be installed.
  • scheme keyword can take a value "greedy" resulting in a greedy (topological) coloring where no two adjacent polygons share a color. Requires mapclassify and libpysal packages.

  The related refactoring of the plotting infrastructure has changed the internal representation of the figure generated by GeoPandas. This can be considered a breaking change if you rely the composition of collections, as that has changed. A number of plotting-related bugs has been fixed along as a side effect. All changes are reflected in an updated user guide. (#3708, #3728, #3748, #3752, #3753, #3763, #3767, #3689).

• GeoParquet improvements:

  • The upcoming GeoParquet 2.0 specification is now supported for both writing and reading (#3632).
  • read_parquet now support direct reading from HTTP/HTTPS protocols (#3699).
  • GeoDataFrame.to_parquet and read_parquet will now write and read attrs respectively (#3597).

• Added geopandas.make_grid and GeoSeries.make_grid to generate a square or hexagonal grids covering the input geometry (#2062).

• Added geopandas.read_file_info to expose information about file layers, including layer metadata (this is an alias for pyogrio.read_info) (#3759).

• Add grid_size parameter to union, difference, symmetric_difference and intersection (#3593).

• Document how to access the feature ID (fid) as the index when reading files
