Indexing

GeoSeries.cx

Coordinate based indexer to select by intersection with bounding box.

Interface

GeoSeries.__geo_interface__

Returns a GeoSeries as a python feature collection.

Methods of pandas Series objects are also available, although not all are applicable to geometric objects and some may return a Series rather than a GeoSeries result when appropriate. The methods isna() and fillna() have been implemented specifically for GeoSeries and are expected to work correctly.
