许多二维点之间的最短路径（Shapely LineString 中的旅行商？）

Question

我试图根据地面点测量创建河流横截面剖面图。当尝试从具有公共 ID 的一系列点创建 Shapely LineString 时，我意识到给定点的顺序非常重要，因为 LineString 只会连接给定点 'indexwise' (按照列表给定的顺序连接点)。下面的代码说明了默认行为：

from shapely.geometry import Point, LineString
import geopandas as gpd
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Generate random points
x=np.random.randint(0,100,10)
y=np.random.randint(0,50,10)
data = zip(x,y)

# Create Point and default LineString GeoSeries
gdf_point = gpd.GeoSeries([Point(j,k) for j,k in data])
gdf_line = gpd.GeoSeries(LineString(zip(x,y)))

# plot the points and "default" LineString
ax = gdf_line.plot(color='red')
gdf_point.plot(marker='*', color='green', markersize=5,ax=ax)

这将产生图像：

问题：Shapely 中是否有任何内置方法可以自动创建最合乎逻辑的（a.k.a。 : 通过给定的随机二维点列表的最短、最不复杂、最少交叉...) 线？

您可以在下面找到与默认行（红色）相比的所需行（绿色）。

Answer 1

没有内置函数，但 shapely 有一个 distance 函数。

您可以轻松地遍历这些点并计算它们之间的最短距离并构建 'shortest' 路径。

官方 github 仓库中有一些 examples。

Answer 2

这是解决我的横截面 LineString 简化问题的方法。但是，我的解决方案没有正确解决计算上更复杂的任务，即找到通过给定点的最终最短路径。正如评论者所建议的那样，有许多库和脚本可用于解决该特定问题，但如果有人想保持简单，您可以使用对我有用的东西。欢迎使用和评论！

def simplify_LineString(linestring):

    '''
    Function reorders LineString vertices in a way that they each vertix is followed by the nearest remaining vertix.
    Caution: This doesn't calculate the shortest possible path (travelling postman problem!) This function performs badly
    on very random points since it doesn't see the bigger picture.
    It is tested only with the positive cartesic coordinates. Feel free to upgrade and share a better function!

    Input must be Shapely LineString and function returns Shapely Linestring.
