windkit.spatial.ds_to_gdf

windkit.spatial.ds_to_gdf(ds, include_height=False)[source]

Convert windkit spatial structure to geopandas dataframe.

Parameters:

  • ds (xr.Dataset or xr.DataArray) – Spatial object.

  • include_height (boolean, optional) – Default False, do not include the height dimension in the geopandas dataframe

Returns:

gdf – GeoDataFrame with columns x, y and optionally z if include_height is True

Return type:

gpd.GeoDataFrame

Notes

If a coordinate name is present on the dataset, it will be included in the geodataframe as well. This can be convenient when you have mast locations that have a name/label. Note that if your dataset is in cuboid or stacked_point format, it will be flattened to a point structure.
