Computes the buffer of a geometry for positive and negative buffer distance.

Applies pgpd.GeosSeriesAccessor.buffer() to each column of “geos” dtype and aggregates the results in a DataFrame.

Parameters:

• args – Arguments passed to buffer() after the first argument.

• inplace (bool, optional) – Whether to perform the modifications inplace; Default False.

• kwargs – Keyword arguments passed to buffer().
