indicate_extent

Maps.indicate_extent(x0, y0, x1, y1, crs=4326, npts=100, **kwargs)

Indicate a rectangular extent in a given crs on the map. (the rectangle is drawn as a polygon where each line is divided by “npts” points to ensure correct re-projection of the shape to other crs)

Parameters

• x0 (float) – the boundaries of the shape

• y0 (float) – the boundaries of the shape

• y1 (float) – the boundaries of the shape

• y1 – the boundaries of the shape

• npts (int, optional) – The number of points used to draw the polygon-lines. (e.g. to correctly display curvature in projected coordinate-systems) The default is 100.

• crs (any, optional) – a coordinate-system identifier. The default is 4326 (e.g. lon/lat).

• kwargs – additional keyword-arguments passed to m.add_gdf().
