Hi @Casyfill,

The best discussion of differences in goals is probably https://github.com/holoviz/spatialpandas/issues/1#issuecomment-547496327. But the discussion of the entire issue (https://github.com/holoviz/spatialpandas/issues/1) may be informative.

The initial motivation/application was to support polygon rendering in Datashader (https://github.com/holoviz/datashader/pull/826).
