Do you have any files from climate models or similar that you should showcase in this notebook? I'm not sure if showcasing the multipoly.shp is relevant to our users, as it isn't a proper grid.

@philipc2 Do you know why the docs are different than the actual notebook? You can compare on reviewNB, the notebook is different on the docs site.

Can you give the two links?

There's only a python version change here, right? :
docs/user-guide/from-points.ipynb

Is GIS more accurate? (it's gray area as we may also call it geometry in the sense that they store spatial data, such as the shapes, boundaries, and locations of features on the Earth’s surface.

It might be a bit more accurate, but GIS seems pretty outside of the scope of our package.

Ok, since we explicitly call the formats, I have changed it to geometry files "Shapefile, GeoJSON"
