New methods:

  • Added sample_points method to sample random points from Polygon or LineString geometries (#2860).
  • New hilbert_distance() method that calculates the distance along a Hilbert curve for each geometry in a GeoSeries/GeoDataFrame (#2297).
  • Support for sorting geometries (for example, using sort_values()) based on the distance along the Hilbert curve (#2070).
  • Added get_coordinates() method from shapely to GeoSeries/GeoDataframe (#2624).
  • Added minimum_bounding_circle() method from shapely to GeoSeries/GeoDataframe (#2621).
  • Added minimum_bounding_radius() as GeoSeries method (#2827).

Other new features and improvements:

  • The Parquet and Feather IO functions now support the latest 1.0.0-beta.1 version of the GeoParquet specification (<geoparquet.org>) (#2663).
  • Added support to fill missing values in GeoSeries.fillna via another GeoSeries (#2535).
  • Support specifying min_zoom and max_zoom inside the map_kwds argument for .explore() (#2599).
  • Added support for append (mode="a" or append=True) in to_file() using engine="pyogrio" (#2788).
  • Added a to_wgs84 keyword to to_json allowing automatic re-projecting to follow the 2016 GeoJSON specification (#416).
  • to_json output now includes a "crs" field if the CRS is not the default WGS84 (#1774).
  • Improve error messages when accessing the geometry attribute of GeoDataFrame without an active geometry column related to the default name "geometry" being provided in the constructor (#2577)

Deprecations and compatibility notes:

  • Added warning that unary_union will return 'GEOMETRYCOLLECTION EMPTY' instead of None for all-None GeoSeries. (#2618)
  • The query_bulk() method of the spatial index .sindex property is deprecated in favor of query() (#2823).

Bug fixes:

  • Ensure that GeoDataFrame created from DataFrame is a copy, not a view (#2667)
  • Fix mismatch between geometries and colors in plot() if an empty or missing geometry is present (#2224)
  • Escape special characters to avoid TemplateSyntaxError in explore() (#2657)
  • Fix to_parquet/to_feather to not write an invalid bbox (with NaNs) in the metadata in case of an empty GeoDataFrame (#2653)
  • Fix to_parquet/to_feather to use correct WKB flavor for 3D geometries (#2654)
  • Fix read_file to avoid reading all file bytes prior to calling Fiona or Pyogrio if provided a URL as input (#2796)
  • Fix copy() downcasting GeoDataFrames without an active geometry column to a DataFrame (#2775)
  • Fix geometry column name propagation when GeoDataFrame columns are a multiindex (#2088)
  • Fix iterfeatures() method of GeoDataFrame to correctly handle non-scalar values when na='drop' is specified (#2811)
  • Fix issue with passing custom legend labels to plot (#2886)

Notes on (optional) dependencies:

  • GeoPandas 0.13 drops support pandas 1.0.5 (the minimum supported pandas version is now 1.1). Further, the minimum required versions for the listed dependencies have now changed to shapely 1.7.1, fiona 1.8.19, pyproj 3.0.1 and matplotlib 3.3.4 (#2655)
