I'm putting together the accessibility report for the Metro, and its static maps need to show how far each station's underground box reaches at street level. `cairo_metro_stations.geojson` has each station's street-level entrances. Can you compute the convex hull of each station's entrances and save the result to `cairo_metro_hulls.geojson`, one Polygon per station? Every row must carry `station_name_en` and `station_name_ar`, both non-empty, with the original Arabic strings and diacritics preserved exactly as they appear in the input.

Let me understand the data structure: 1. The GeoJSON file contains a FeatureCollection with stations. 2. Each feature has properties with `station_name_en` and `station_name_ar`. 3. Each feature's geometry is a `MultiPoint` with coordinates representing street-level entrances. 4. I need to compute the convex hull of each station's entrances (MultiPoint → Polygon convex hull). 5. Save to `/work/cairo_metro_hulls.geojson` with one Polygon per station. 6. Must carry `station_name_en` and `station_name_ar`, both non-empty. Let me write a Python script using geopandas and shapely to do this.

Good, I have 20 stations. Each feature has a MultiPoint geometry with entrance coordinates. I need to compute the convex hull of each station's entrances and save the result as a GeoJSON with one Polygon per station, preserving the station names. Let me write a Python script using geopandas and shapely.

Wait, I need to be careful. The convex hull of a MultiPoint with at least 3 non-collinear points returns a Polygon. For points fewer than 3, it returns a Point or LineString. Let me check if any stations have fewer than 3 entrances. Looking at the data: - El-Marg: 3 points (could be collinear) - Ghamra: 3 points - Helmeyet El-Zaitoun: 3 points - Manshiet El-Sadr: 3 points - Mar Girgis: 3 points - Opera: 3 points - Saad Zaghloul: 3 points These could be collinear. Let me handle the edge cases better. Actually, for 3 points, even if collinear, convex_hull returns a LineString (since it's degenerate). Let me adjust. Actually, let me just run the script and see if it works. If there are issues, I'll handle them.

The output looks good. All 20 features are present, each with `station_name_en` and `station_name_ar` preserved exactly. Let me verify that all stations with only 3 entrances (like El-Marg, Ghamra, Helmeyet El-Zaitoun, Manshiet El-Sadr, Mar Girgis, Opera, Saad Zaghloul) still formed proper Polygons (triangles). Looking at the output: - El-Marg: 3 points → triangle ✓ - Ghamra: 3 points → triangle ✓ - Helmeyet El-Zaitoun: 3 points → triangle ✓ - Manshiet El-Sadr: 3 points → triangle ✓ - Mar Girgis: 3 points → triangle ✓ - Opera: 3 points → triangle ✓ - Saad Zaghloul: 3 points → triangle ✓ All good. Every row has non-empty station_name_en and station_name_ar. The Arabic strings are preserved exactly. Let me also verify that the "Sadat" station (5 points) only has 4 vertices in the output... yes, the convex hull of 5 points reduced to 4 vertices (one point was inside the hull). That's correct. Wait - I need to double check: the specification says "one Polygon per station". For stations with only 3 entrances, the convex hull is already a triangle (Polygon). For stations with only 2 entrances... but looking at the data, all stations have at least 3 entrances (the minimum I see is 3). But my code handles the edge cases too. Good. The output file is at `/work/cairo_metro_hulls.geojson` as requested.
