Question

Answer 1

Expanding a bit on the answer by @Juanito

With my data I got an InvalidOperation: []

This seems to be because my input data has more than the default precision of 28:

gdf_temp['latitude'][0]

Decimal('44.5001088968049742788934963755309581756591796875')

This worked:

getcontext().prec = 64

gdf_temp['longitude'] = gdf_temp['longitude'].apply(Decimal)
gdf_temp['latitude'] = gdf_temp['latitude'].apply(Decimal)

gdf_temp['longitude'] = gdf_temp['longitude'].apply((lambda x: x.quantize(Decimal('1.00000'))))
gdf_temp['latitude'] = gdf_temp['latitude'].apply((lambda x: x.quantize(Decimal('1.00000'))))

gdf_temp['latitude'][0]

Decimal('44.50011')
