import hvplot.pandas  # noqa

Using hvplot with geopandas is as simple as loading a geopandas dataframe and calling hvplot on it with geo=True.

import geopandas as gpd

cities = gpd.read_file(gpd.datasets.get_path('naturalearth_cities'))
cities.sample(5)

	name	geometry
136	Apia	POINT (-171.76860 -13.83571)
50	Lusaka	POINT (28.28138 -15.41470)
144	Hanoi	POINT (105.84807 21.03527)
118	Tirana	POINT (19.81888 41.32754)
181	Caracas	POINT (-66.91898 10.50294)

cities.hvplot(geo=True, tiles=True)

You can easily change the tiles, add coastlines, or which fields show up in the hover text:

cities.hvplot(tiles='EsriTerrain', coastline=True, hover_cols='all')

We can also alter the projection of the data using cartopy:

import cartopy.crs as ccrs

cities.hvplot(coastline=True, projection=ccrs.Geostationary(central_longitude=-30), global_extent=True)
