#Geopandas

Seeking recommendations for a #WebMapping tutorial / course?

Slightly at sea on where to start.

- My current JS skill level is _extreme novice_.
- I don't have access to ArcGIS.
- Comfortable with #QGIS [*] and the #python #geospatial ecosystem (#geopandas #xarray #rasterio and plotting with #matplotlib)

Suggestions welcome. TIA. 👍

* I have looked at the qgis2web plugin, but having some issues associated with my aged laptop (2012 mbp running Ubuntu) and a 'Wayland session'.

Continued thread

The development was supported by NumFOCUS (small development grant for the #GeoPandas project). A lot of the credit goes to @jorisvandenbossche and @paleolimbot (through S2Geography). Also many thanks to the new contributors!

Joris is going to give a talk about it next week at the GeoPython conference in Basel. If you go there, don’t miss it!

"R⁵py is a #Python library for rapid realistic routing on multimodal transport networks (walk, bike, public transport, and car). It provides a simple and friendly interface to R⁵, the Rapid Realistic Routing on Real-world and Reimagined networks, a routing engine developed by Conveyal. #r5py is inspired by r5r, a wrapper for R, and it is designed to interact with #GeoPandas #GeoDataFrames."

[some beautiful AND enlightening use of animated maps, makes us #spatialgeeks want to get in there and pull the data apart with our bare hands (sic), so many use cases...]
“Earlier this week in a workshop for the Data Science & Analytics team at [UK Ordnance Survey], [they] looked at creating animated maps.
[They] used 2021 Census data reported at MSOA level to look at how the spatial distribution of population changes with age in and around London. The trend between ages 25 to 50 of young people progressively moving away from central London is fun to see..."
