Replace `pygeos` imports about book

[ljwolf]

Yes. Should be a straight swap to shapely!

One fewer dependency for the book would be great. Here is a proposed update for this.

Original

For the minimum rotated rectangle, we will use the minimum_rotated_rectangle function from the pygeos module, which constructs the minimum rotated rectangle for an input multi-point object. This means that we will need to collect our points together into a single multi-point object and then compute the rotated rectangle for that object.

from pygeos import minimum_rotated_rectangle, from_shapely, to_shapely

point_array = geopandas.points_from_xy(x=user.x, y=user.y)

min_rot_rect = minimum_rotated_rectangle(
    from_shapely(
        point_array.unary_union()
    )
)
min_rot_rect = to_shapely(min_rot_rect)

Update

For the minimum rotated rectangle, we will use the minimum_rotated_rectangle property from GeoPandas, which constructs the minimum rotated rectangle for an input multi-point object. This means that we will need to collect our points together into a single multi-point object and then compute the rotated rectangle for that object.

point_array = geopandas.points_from_xy(x=user.x, y=user.y)

min_rot_rect = point_array.unary_union().minimum_rotated_rectangle
