Shapely

- ``oriented_envelope`` / ``minimum_rotated_rectangle`` changed its implementation
in GEOS 3.12. Be aware that results will change when updating GEOS. Coincidentally
the implementation is similar to the shapely 1.x approach. (1885)
- ``get_coordinate_dimension`` / ``has_z`` now considers geometries three dimensional if
they have a NaN z coordinate. (1885)
- ``voronoi_polygons`` changed its output from a LINESTRING to a MULTILINESTRING in case
``only_edges=True``. (1885)
- The WKT representation of a MULTIPOINT changed from for example "MULTIPOINT (0 0, 1 1)"
to "MULTIPOINT ((0 0), (1 1))". (1885)

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

Bug fixes:

- Prevent crash when serializing a number > 1e100 to WKT with GEOS < 3.13. (1907)

Improvements:

- Require GEOS >= 3.8, NumPy >= 1.16, and Python >= 3.8 (1802, 1885)
- Handle ``Feature`` type in ``shapely.geometry.shape`` (1815)
- Add a ``handle_nan`` parameter to ``shapely.linestrings()`` and ``shapely.linearrings()``
to allow, skip, or error on nonfinite (NaN / Inf) coordinates. The default
behaviour (allow) is backwards compatible (1594).
- Add an ``interleaved`` parameter to ``shapely.transform()`` allowing a transposed call
signature in the ``transformation`` function.
- The ``include_z`` in ``shapely.transform()`` now also allows ``None``, which
lets it automatically detect the dimensionality of each input geometry.
- Add parameters ``method`` and ``keep_collapsed`` to ``shapely.make_valid()`` (1941)
- Upgraded the GEOS version in the binary wheel distributions to 3.12.1.
- The ``voronoi_polygons`` now accepts the ``ordered`` keyword, optionally forcing the
order of polygons within the GeometryCollection to follow the order of input
coordinates. Requires at least GEOS 3.12. (1968)

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

Bug fixes:

- Fix compatibility with NumPy 2.1.0 (2099).

Wheels are available for Python 3.13 (and still include GEOS 3.11.4).

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

Binary wheels on PyPI include GEOS 3.11.4 from 2024-06-05. Furthermore,
universal2 wheels are removed for macOS since both x86_64 and arm64 wheels are
provided.

Bug fixes:

- Fix Point x/y/z attributes to return Python floats (2074).
- Fix affinity for Apple silicon with NumPy 2.0 by reverting matmul, and
use direct matrix multiplication instead (2085).

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

Wheels for Python versions >= 3.9 will be compatible with the upcoming NumPy 2.0
release (as well as with supported NumPy 1.x versions).

Bug fixes:

- Fix bug in ``to_wkt`` with multiple empty Z geometries (2012).
- Fix bug in ``to_ragged_array`` for an array of Points with missing values (2034).

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

- Fix regression in the ``oriented_envelope`` ufunc to accept array-like input
in case of GEOS<3.12 (1929).
- The binary wheels are not yet compatible with a future NumPy 2.0 release,
therefore a ``numpy<2`` upper pin was added to the requirements (1972).
- Upgraded the GEOS version in the binary wheel distributions to 3.11.3.
