Uwe L. Korn created ARROW-378:
---------------------------------
Summary: Python: Respect timezone on conversion of Pandas datetime
columns
Key: ARROW-378
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-378
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Uwe L. Korn
Currently we convert columns irrespectively of their timezone directly to
timestamps in Arrow. While in Pandas you are able to specify timezones, in
Arrow we have the assumptions that a Timestamp is always the time of the
specified unit since 00:00:00.000 on 1 January 1970, UTC. Thus we have to check
if {{df['column‘].tz}} is set and convert if necessary to UTC before converting
to an Arrow column.
