Geospatial Analysis with Python

Data comes in all shapes and sizes and often government data is geospatial in nature. Often times data science programs & tutorials ignore how to work with this rich data to make room for more advanced topics. Our MinneMUDAC competition heavily utilized geospatial data but was processed to provide students a more familiar format. But as good scientists, we should use primary sources of information as often as possible.

Come to this talk to get a basic understanding of how to read, write, query and perform simple geospatial calculations on Minnesota Tax shapefiles with Python.

As always data & code will be provided.

Two years later and video is still truly helpful. I wish I had seen this video when I first started to look on tutorials for geospatial analysis. There are many code snippets that are not commonly found in tutorials that we may google when first getting started.

Awesome intro to those geospatial python libraries! Thanks so much!

John from General Mills? you guys make great cereal. Thanks for me lucky charms

This was awesome, cleared up a lot for me, thanks so much. Any chance for a crash course in geo machine learning? Like, how to use geopandas in the context of scikit learn or the like.

Hi. Great video!, one question. I have a lot of lat long points, so im trying to make a grid, maybe 50mx50m, to have a mean or the median of this points into a single grid. Do you know How can I make this? Thanks

Thanks Rogue Hogue .. i feel the tutorial and content is really good.
Just one thing in the code shared at git hub, i am unable to plot one polygon over another, where you have used <ax=ax>.Can you please suggest me.

Hi,


I can't seem to even get geopandas or any of the libraries to install. I am in Jupyter notebook, and when I run the cells it just seems to spin forever. It was about an hour before I just decided to restart the kernel. I downloaded Python 3.7. I am quite new to this as you can probably tell. What should I do? Should I ry uninstalling and reinstalling Anaconda3?

Just want to thank you for video and for everything what you do on GitHub. One question is how to get database of lets say European lakes ? Thank you so much for everything!
