Metric buffer and without overlap
=================================

This example demonstrates the metric buffering of a vector using :func:`~geoutils.Vector.buffer_metric` and  :func:`~geoutils.Vector.buffer_without_overlap`.

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 9-10

We open an example vector

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 10-16

.. code-block:: Python


    import geoutils as gu

    filename_vect = gu.examples.get_path("everest_rgi_outlines")
    vect = gu.Vector(filename_vect)








.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 18-20

We buffer in metric units directly using :func:`~geoutils.Vector.buffer_metric`. Under the hood, this functionality reprojects to a local projection,
buffers, and converts back to the original CRS.

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 20-22

.. code-block:: Python

    vect_buff = vect.buffer_metric(buffer_size=500)








.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 23-24

Let's plot the raster and vector

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 24-27

.. code-block:: Python

    ax = vect.plot()
    vect_buff.plot(ec="k", fc="none")

   :class: sphx-glr-single-img





.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 28-30

Many buffers are overlapping. To compute a buffer without overlap, one can use :func:`~geoutils.Vector.buffer_without_overlap`.


.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 30-34

.. code-block:: Python

    vect_buff_nolap = vect.buffer_without_overlap(buffer_size=500)
    vect.plot(ax="new")
    vect_buff_nolap.plot(ec="k", fc="none")

We plot with color to see that the attributes are retained for every feature.

.. GENERATED FROM PYTHON SOURCE LINES 36-38

.. code-block:: Python

    vect_buff_nolap.plot(ax="new", column="Area")
    vect.plot(ec="k", column="Area", alpha=0.5)
