movingpandas.TrajectoryCollection.add_distance#

TrajectoryCollection.add_distance(overwrite=False, name='distance', units=None, n_processes=1, **kwargs)#

Add distance column and values to the trajectories.

Parameters:

  • overwrite (bool) – Whether to overwrite existing distance values (default: False)

  • name (str) – Name of the distance column (default: “distance”)

  • units (str) – Units in which to calculate distance values (default: CRS units) For more info, check the list of supported units at https://movingpandas.org/units

  • n_processes (int or None, optional) – Number of processes to use for computation (default: 1). If set to None, the number of processes will be set to os.cpu_count() (or os.process_cpu_count() in Python 3.13+), enabling full CPU utilization via multiprocessing.

  • n_threads (int, optional) – DEPRECATED. Use n_processes instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
