# GeoDataFrame.estimate_utm_crs

> Return the estimated UTM CRS based on the bounds of the dataset.

Return the estimated UTM CRS based on the bounds of the dataset.

*Added in version 2.0.0.*

## Signature

```python theme={"system"}
estimate_utm_crs(datum_name: str = 'WGS 84') -> CRS
```

## Parameters

<ParamField path="datum_name" type="str" default="'WGS 84'">
  The name of the datum to use in the query. Default is `"WGS 84"`.
</ParamField>

## Returns

<ResponseField name="return" type="pyproj.CRS">
  The UTM coordinate reference system covering the center of the
  active geometry column's bounds.
</ResponseField>

<Note>
  Bounds are computed with one distributed aggregation. Only its four
  aggregate values are materialized on the driver; geometry rows are not
  collected.
