flatten geometry series (3D to 2D) in geopandas dataframe

	# Often when reading in a ShapeFile from Basemap, you'll get: "ValueError: readshapefile can only handle 2D shape types"
	# A trick can be to convert your geometry in your GeoPandas Dataframe and restoring the new flattened 2D geometry
	# series back into a shapefile and try again.
