Extract Domain Boundaries from Geographical Features and Transform into Specified Projection Systems Using Python

This resource provides a Jupyter notebook demonstrating how to use GeoPandas and Shapely in Python to extract bounding box information from a shapefile or GeoJSON file. It ensures that the returned values are in a specified projection system, regardless of whether the original file uses a geographic or projected coordinate system. Users can adjust the parameters in the notebook to fit their specific use case. In this example, the parameters are based on the Kings River Watershed in California, with the target projection system being Lambert Conformal Conic, as used in National Water Model versions 1-3.
