# Save with new features gdf.to_file('path/to/save/NepalGSheng_with_features.shp') The features you generate depend on your analysis or modeling needs. The example above creates two simple features: the area of each geographic object and the distance from each object's boundary to its centroid. Conclusion The process of generating features from a dataset like "NepalGSheng.zip" involves understanding the data, choosing appropriate tools, and then applying those tools to create meaningful features for your specific use case, whether it's GIS analysis, data visualization, or machine learning.

gdf['dist_to_centroid'] = gdf.apply(distance_to_centroid, axis=1)
