swn.file.gdf_to_shapefile

swn.file.gdf_to_shapefile(gdf, shp_fname, **kwargs)

Write any GeoDataFrame to a shapefile.

This is a workaround to the to_file method, which cannot save GeoDataFrame objects with other data types, such as set. It also has mappings between internal names and 10-character versions required for shapefiles.

Parameters:

gdfgeopandas.GeoDataFrame

GeoDataFrame to export

shp_fnamestr

File path for output shapefile

kwargsmapping

Keyword arguments passed to to_file and to fiona.open

Returns:

None
