GeoPandas is an open source project to make working with geospatial data in python easier. GeoPandas extends the datatypes used by pandas to allow spatial operations on geometric types. Geometric operations are performed by shapely. Geopandas further depends on fiona for file access and matplotlib for plotting.
GeoPandas是一个开源项目，使在Python中处理地理空间数据变得更加容易。GeoPandas扩展了pandas的数据类型，允许对几何类型进行空间操作。Geopandas依赖shapely执行几何操作、依赖fiona执行文件访问操作、依赖matplotlib执行绘图操作。
