dask_geopandas.GeoSeries.centroid

property GeoSeries.centroid

Returns a GeoSeries of points representing the centroid of each geometry.

This docstring was copied from geopandas.base.GeoPandasBase.centroid.

Some inconsistencies with the Dask version may exist.

Note that centroid does not have to be on or within original geometry.
