Pygeoutils

-------------------

Internal Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Use ``rioxarray`` for dealing with ``GeoTIFF`` binaries since ``xarray``
deprecated the ``xarray.open_rasterio`` function, as it's discussed
in this `PR <https://github.com/pydata/xarray/pull/5808>`__.
- Use ``importlib-metadata`` for getting the version instead of ``pkg_resources``
to decrease import time as discussed in this
`issue <https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/5676>`__.

-------------------

New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Add a new function, ``xarray2geodf``, to convert a ``xarray.DataArray`` to a
``geopandas.GeoDataFrame``.

-------------------

Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- Fix an issue with ``gtiff2xarray`` where the ``scales`` and ``offsets``
attributes of the output ``DataArray`` were floats rather than tuples (:issue_3dep:`30`).

Internal Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Add a new function, ``transform2tuple``, for converting ``Affine`` transforms to a tuple.
Previously, the ``Affine`` transform was converted to a tuple using ``to_gdal()`` method
of ``rasterio.Affine`` which was not compatible with ``rioxarray``.

-------------------

Internal Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Use ``ujson`` for JSON parsing instead of ``orjson`` since ``orjson`` only serializes to
``bytes`` which is not compatible with ``aiohttp``.
- Convert the transform attribute data type from ``Affine`` to ``tuple`` since saving a data
array to ``netcdf`` cannot handle the ``Affine`` type.

-------------------

- Fix an issue in ``geotiff2xarray`` related to saving a ``xarray`` object to NetCDF when its
transform attribute has ``Affine`` type rather than a tuple.

-------------------

The highlight of this release is performance improvement in ``gtiff2xarray`` for
handling large responses.

New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Automatic detection of the driver by default in ``gtiff2xarray`` as opposed to it being
``GTiff``.

Internal Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Make ``geo2polygon``, ``get_transform``, and ``get_nodata_crs`` public functions
since other packages use it.
- Make ``xarray_mask`` a public function and simplify ``gtiff2xarray``.
- Remove ``MatchCRS`` since it's already available in ``pygeoogc``.
- Validate input geometry in ``geo2polygon``.
- Refactor ``gtiff2xarray`` to check for the ``ds_dims`` outside the main loops to
improve the performance. Also, the function tries to detect the dimension names
automatically if ``ds_dims`` is not provided by the user, explicitly.
- Improve performance of ``json2geodf`` by using list comprehension and performing
checks outside the main loop.

Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- Add the missing arguments for masking the data in ``gtiff2xarray``.
