shapely.points#
- points(coords, y=None, z=None, indices=None, out=None, **kwargs)#
Create an array of points.
- Parameters:
- coordsarray_like
An array of coordinate tuples (2- or 3-dimensional) or, if
y
is provided, an array of x coordinates.- yarray_like, optional
- zarray_like, optional
- indicesarray_like, optional
Indices into the target array where input coordinates belong. If provided, the coords should be 2D with shape (N, 2) or (N, 3) and indices should be an array of shape (N,) with integers in increasing order. Missing indices result in a ValueError unless
out
is provided, in which case the original value inout
is kept.- outndarray, optional
An array (with dtype object) to output the geometries into.
- **kwargs
See NumPy ufunc docs for other keyword arguments. Ignored if
indices
is provided.
Notes
GEOS 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12 automatically converts POINT (nan nan) to POINT EMPTY.
GEOS 3.10 and 3.11 will transform a 3D point to 2D if its Z coordinate is NaN.
Usage of the
y
andz
arguments will prevents lazy evaluation indask
. Instead provide the coordinates as an array with shape(..., 2)
or(..., 3)
using only thecoords
argument.
Examples
>>> points([[0, 1], [4, 5]]).tolist() [<POINT (0 1)>, <POINT (4 5)>] >>> points([0, 1, 2]) <POINT Z (0 1 2)>
