The style of the buffer cap. One of ‘round’, ‘flat’, ‘square’.
str
default:"'round'"
The style of the buffer join. One of ‘round’, ‘mitre’, ‘bevel’.

The mitre limit ratio for joins when join_style=‘mitre’.
bool
default:"False"
Whether to create a single-sided buffer. In Sedona, True will default to left-sided buffer.
However, ‘right’ may be specified to use a right-sided buffer.
Returns
GeoSeries
A new GeoSeries with buffered geometries.
