GeoParquet will still be used for bit since both the native geo types in parquet and geoparquet have slight differences. But, the ultimate goal is to shift all data / workloads to the parquet native geo in a couple of years!

Now, Apache Sedona is the first engine that will support that native geo type in parquet, but Arrow will also support it very soon.
