Example - Use a rasterize function when creating a raster

import geopandas

from functools import partial
from geocube.rasterize import rasterize_image

from geocube.api.core import make_geocube

%matplotlib inline

gdf = geopandas.read_file(geopandas.datasets.get_path('naturalearth_lowres'))

geo_grid = make_geocube(
    vector_data=gdf,
    measurements=['pop_est'],
    resolution=(-3.0, 3.0),
)
geo_grid["pop_est"].plot()

geo_grid = make_geocube(
    vector_data=gdf,
    measurements=['pop_est'],
    resolution=(-3.0, 3.0),
    rasterize_function=partial(rasterize_image, all_touched=True),
)
geo_grid["pop_est"].plot()
