| GeoDataFrames | ||
|
|
||
| Work with geospatial vector data (points, lines, polygons and their attributes) | ||
| using the familiar `DataFrame` from [DataFrames.jl](https://dataframes.juliadata.org/). | ||
|
|
||
| A GeoDataFrame is just a regular `DataFrame` with one or more columns of | ||
| [GeoInterface.jl](https://juliageo.org/GeoInterface.jl/) compatible geometries; | ||
| there is no dedicated type. The package provides: | ||
|
|
||
| - [`read`](@ref) and [`write`](@ref) for the most common vector file formats | ||
| (GeoPackage, Shapefile, GeoJSON, FlatGeobuf, GeoParquet, Arrow, ...). | ||
| - Coordinate reference system helpers such as [`setcrs!`](@ref), | ||
| [`reproject`](@ref) and [`reproject!`](@ref). | ||
| - Re-exports of `DataFrames`, `GeoInterface`, `GeometryOps` and `Extents` so that | ||
| `using GeoDataFrames` is usually all you need. | ||
|
|
||
| ```julia | ||
| using GeoDataFrames | ||
| df = DataFrame(geometry = GeoInterface.Point.(rand(10), rand(10)), name = "test") | ||
| GeoDataFrames.write("points.gpkg", df) | ||
| ``` | ||

Shouldn't this just be the readme? Harder to maintain docstrings in two places

Hmm, you mean, copy that content, or do you want to do it automagically?

IIRC Julia already does it automatically, try ?GeometryOps
