Overlay of two polygon layers
Going back to the land use and districts datasets, we will now combine both datasets in an overlay operation. Create a new GeoDataFrame
consisting of the intersection of the land use polygons with each of the districts, but make sure to bring the attribute data from both source layers.
GeoPandas is already imported.
