GeoSpatial Data Analysis with Python
Details
Geospatial analysis the gathering, display, and manipulation of imagery, GPS, satellite photography and historical data. It is important to many fields such as logistics, transportation, drone flight etc. This introductory course on geospatial data analysis in Python will cover different Python packages for geospatial data analysis such as GeoPandas, Pydata, Shapely . It will cover munging geo-data and exploring relations over space. This includes importing data in different formats (e.g. shapefile, GeoJSON), visualizing, combining and tidying them up for analysis, exploring spatial relationships,
The topics include
- Python geospatial packages
- Visualizing geospatial data
- Spatial relationships and operations
- Spatial joins and overlays
