GeoPandasToday is the day! GeoPandas 1.1.0 is out, available on PyPI and conda-forge. This release brings feature parity with shapely 2.1 thanks to a long list of new methods, allows sparse and dense arrays as outputs of spatial index queries and comes with coverage simplification, among many other improvements and fixes. See the full list of changes at <a href="https://geopandas.org/en/stable/docs/changelog.html#version-1-1-0-june-1-2025" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://geopandas.org/en/stable/docs/changelog.html#version-1-1-0-june-1-2025</a> If we have broken anything, please let us know :).<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/geopython" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geopython</a>

Martin FleischmannEver needed to simplify street networks? I did. And it is a pain. So we joined forces with <a href="https://datasci.social/@anavybor" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@anavybor</a> and <a href="https://fosstodon.org/@JamesGaboardi" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@JamesGaboardi</a> and wrote an algorithm that does that for us. And can do for you, as it is available as a Python package called `neatnet`. Here's a short blog about it - <a href="https://martinfleischmann.net/simplification-of-street-networks/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://martinfleischmann.net/simplification-of-street-networks/</a>And here's, not so short preprint - <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.16198" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.16198</a>But you probably want the package.
