Paths Layer¶

Path lines traced across the globe

The paths layer draws a polyline that follows a sequence of coordinates along the surface. Each line is a PathDatum.

from IPython.display import display

from pyglobegl import GlobeConfig, GlobeWidget, PathDatum, PathsLayerConfig

paths = [
    PathDatum(path=[(0, 0), (5, 5), (10, 0)], color="#66ccff", dash_length=0.02),
]

config = GlobeConfig(
    paths=PathsLayerConfig(paths_data=paths, path_transition_duration=0),
)

display(GlobeWidget(config=config))

`PathDatum`¶

A path is a list of (lat, lng) (or (lat, lng, altitude)) coordinates plus appearance fields such as color, stroke, dash_length, dash_gap, and dash_animate_time. Layer-level options like path_transition_duration live on PathsLayerConfig.

From a GeoDataFrame or trajectory

paths_from_gdf builds paths from LineString geometries, and paths_from_mpd builds them from MovingPandas trajectories. See GeoPandas helpers and MovingPandas helpers.
