Exporting data
It is possible to export geospatial data using GeoPandas and it provides drivers for writing in several file formats. To export geospatial data using GeoPandas, we can use the to_file() method of a GeoDataFrame object. The to_file() method allows us to write the data in a variety of file formats, such as GeoJSON, shapefile, and others.
It can also be used as a tool for converting between file formats. As all the features are stored internally, in memory, as Shapely objects, we can interchange among any ...
