GeoSeries.to_json(self, \*\*kwargs)	Returns a GeoJSON string representation of the GeoSeries.

Projection handling

GeoSeries.crs	The Coordinate Reference System (CRS) represented as a pyproj.CRS object.
GeoSeries.set_crs(self[, crs, epsg, …])	Set the Coordinate Reference System (CRS) of a GeoSeries.

Plotting

GeoSeries.plot(self, \*args, \*\*kwargs)

Plot a GeoSeries.

Spatial index

GeoSeries.sindex

Interface

GeoSeries.__geo_interface__

Returns a GeoSeries as a python feature collection.

Methods of pandas Series objects are also available, although not all are applicable to geometric objects and some may return a Series rather than a GeoSeries result when appropriate. The methods isna() and fillna() have been implemented specifically for GeoSeries and are expected to work correctly.
