Usage examples
H3 API
h3pandas automatically applies H3 functions to both Pandas Dataframes and GeoPandas Geodataframes
# Prepare data
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> import h3pandas
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({'lat': [50, 51], 'lng': [14, 15]})
>>> resolution = 10
>>> df = df.h3.geotoh3(resolution)
>>> df
| h3_10 | lat | lng | |:----------------|------:|------:| | 8a1e30973807fff | 50 | 14 | | 8a1e2659c2c7fff | 51 | 15 |
>>> df = df.h3.h3togeo_boundary() >>> df
| h3_10 | lat | lng | geometry | |:----------------|------:|------:|:----------------| | 8a1e30973807fff | 50 | 14 | POLYGON ((...)) | | 8a1e2659c2c7fff | 51 | 15 | POLYGON ((...)) |
H3-Pandas Extended API
h3pandas also provides some extended functionality out-of-the-box,
often simplifying common workflows into a single command.
# Set up data
>>> import numpy as np
>>> import pandas as pd
>>> np.random.seed(1729)
>>> df = pd.DataFrame({
>>> 'lat': np.random.uniform(50, 51, 100),
>>> 'lng': np.random.uniform(14, 15, 100),
>>> 'value': np.random.poisson(100, 100)})
>>> })
# Aggregate values by their location and sum
>>> df = df.h3.geotoh3_aggregate(3)
>>> df
| h3_03 | value | geometry | |:----------------|--------:|:----------------| | 831e30fffffffff | 102 | POLYGON ((...)) | | 831e34fffffffff | 189 | POLYGON ((...)) | | 831e35fffffffff | 8744 | POLYGON ((...)) | | 831f1bfffffffff | 1040 | POLYGON ((...)) |
Aggregate to a lower H3 resolution
>>> df.h3.h3toparent_aggregate(2)
| h3_02 | value | geometry | |:----------------|--------:|:----------------| | 821e37fffffffff | 9035 | POLYGON ((...)) | | 821f1ffffffffff | 1040 | POLYGON ((...)) |

H3-Pandas cover the basics of the H3 API, but there are still many possible improvements.Any suggestions and contributions are very welcome!
In particular, the next steps are:
- [ ] Improvements & stability of the "Extended API", e.g.
kringsmoothing.
- [ ] Allow for alternate h3-py APIs such as memview_int
- [ ] Performance improvements through Cythonized h3-py
- [ ] Dask integration through dask-geopandas (experimental as of now)
