Series of dtype('bool') with value True for
each aligned geometry that is within a set distance from other.
The operation works on a 1-to-1 row-wise manner:
Signature
Parameters
GeoSeries or geometric object
required
The GeoSeries (elementwise) or geometric object to test for
equality.
numeric scalar, array-like, pandas Series, or pandas-on-Spark Series
required
Distance(s) to test if each geometry is within. A scalar distance
is applied to every geometry. Array-like and Series distances are
paired positionally with the geometry rows after
self and
other have been aligned. A one-element non-Series array-like is
broadcast; otherwise the distance input must have the same length
as the aligned geometries.bool | None (default None)
default:"None"
If True, automatically aligns GeoSeries based on their indices.
If False, the order of elements is preserved. None defaults to True.
Returns
Series(bool)
This method works in a row-wise manner. It does not check if an element
of one GeoSeries is within the set distance of any element of the other one.The index of a pandas or pandas-on-Spark distance Series is ignored.
Distance values remain distributed when a pandas-on-Spark Series is
provided. Length validation for non-scalar distances is lazy: an error
is raised only when an action evaluates a mismatched row. Partial
actions may not detect rows they do not evaluate.

align=True or ignore index and compare elements based on their matching
order using align=False:
