geopandas.GeoSeries.intersection#
- GeoSeries.intersection(other, align=None)[source]#
Returns a
GeoSeries
of the intersection of points in each aligned geometry with other.The operation works on a 1-to-1 row-wise manner:
- Parameters:
- otherGeoseries or geometric object
The Geoseries (elementwise) or geometric object to find the intersection with.
- alignbool | None (default None)
If True, automatically aligns GeoSeries based on their indices. If False, the order of elements is preserved. None defaults to True.
- Returns:
- GeoSeries
Examples
>>> from shapely.geometry import Polygon, LineString, Point >>> s = geopandas.GeoSeries( ... [ ... Polygon([(0, 0), (2, 2), (0, 2)]), ... Polygon([(0, 0), (2, 2), (0, 2)]), ... LineString([(0, 0), (2, 2)]), ... LineString([(2, 0), (0, 2)]), ... Point(0, 1), ... ], ... ) >>> s2 = geopandas.GeoSeries( ... [ ... Polygon([(0, 0), (1, 1), (0, 1)]), ... LineString([(1, 0), (1, 3)]), ... LineString([(2, 0), (0, 2)]), ... Point(1, 1), ... Point(0, 1), ... ], ... index=range(1, 6), ... )
>>> s 0 POLYGON ((0 0, 2 2, 0 2, 0 0)) 1 POLYGON ((0 0, 2 2, 0 2, 0 0)) 2 LINESTRING (0 0, 2 2) 3 LINESTRING (2 0, 0 2) 4 POINT (0 1) dtype: geometry
>>> s2 1 POLYGON ((0 0, 1 1, 0 1, 0 0)) 2 LINESTRING (1 0, 1 3) 3 LINESTRING (2 0, 0 2) 4 POINT (1 1) 5 POINT (0 1) dtype: geometry
We can also do intersection of each geometry and a single shapely geometry:
>>> s.intersection(Polygon([(0, 0), (1, 1), (0, 1)])) 0 POLYGON ((0 0, 0 1, 1 1, 0 0)) 1 POLYGON ((0 0, 0 1, 1 1, 0 0)) 2 LINESTRING (0 0, 1 1) 3 POINT (1 1) 4 POINT (0 1) dtype: geometry
We can also check two GeoSeries against each other, row by row. The GeoSeries above have different indices. We can either align both GeoSeries based on index values and compare elements with the same index using
align=True
or ignore index and compare elements based on their matching order usingalign=False
:>>> s.intersection(s2, align=True) 0 None 1 POLYGON ((0 0, 0 1, 1 1, 0 0)) 2 POINT (1 1) 3 LINESTRING (2 0, 0 2) 4 POINT EMPTY 5 None dtype: geometry
>>> s.intersection(s2, align=False) 0 POLYGON ((0 0, 0 1, 1 1, 0 0)) 1 LINESTRING (1 1, 1 2) 2 POINT (1 1) 3 POINT (1 1) 4 POINT (0 1) dtype: geometry
