### Additional information

#### Feature identifiers

If you are using GeoParquet to serialize geospatial data with feature identifiers, it is recommended that you create your own [file key/value metadata](https://github.com/apache/parquet-format#metadata) to indicate the column that represents this identifier. As an example, GDAL writes additional metadata using the `gdal:schema` key including information about feature identifiers and other information outside the scope of the GeoParquet specification.

#### Example data

You can find an example in the [examples](../examples/) folder.
