I'll jump in here again and promote using polygons. Writing the code the first time around felt really natural. Just to be clear, they don't necessarily have to fully partition...

I notice that this issue has gotten a few +1's, which is great to see. Those who have put these down do you have any comments on the questions above?...

Alternatively, it could be that people don't have large geospatial datasets and that the right thing for geopandas to focus on is good in-memory performance.

@r-shekhar thanks for the feedback. Which operations are particularly relevant for you? Would you be willing to produce a small notebook with fake data that represents what you would like...

Also, would your use case still be relevant if geopandas itself were 100x faster without Dask?

When using the Cython branch (experimental, seemingly stalled for now) the GIL is not an issue. Dask is happy to use threads or processes. On Wed, Jan 17, 2018 at...

> These features could be implemented within .zattrs without requiring any changes to the spec I find myself agreeing with this. I think that ideally Zarr would remain low-level and...

If dimensions are applicable enough across other domains then I'm happy to relax my objections. I think that it would be useful to hear from people like @jakirkham (who comes...

My understanding is that this proposal is entirely compatible (both backwards and forwards) with existing data On Mon, Jul 16, 2018 at 12:30 PM Alistair Miles wrote: > This is...
