Description

Hello, I'd like to be able to find the max value of a common property of all of the associated elements in the geobuf file. Is there a way to open the file in geopandas or parse the file in another way to search for the associated properties? I've tried converting back to a geojson, but it is quite slow for my use case.

Research direction

No source file or test is named. Start by reviewing geobuf's existing parsing interfaces and the requested pandas or geopandas workflow, then define what a supported direct property search would require and how completion would be verified without converting to GeoJSON.
