Reviews
"""The geospatial Python ecosystem is evolving rapidly, and until now there has been no one-stop reference for the geospatial programmer on data I/O, spatial analysis, and geovisualization. I will use this book in my teaching and will also recommend it to students as a book to keep on the shelf and use as a supplement to other courses, for independent projects, and for their future careers. I don't think there is anything quite like it in the market."" -Professor Lee Hachadoorian, Temple University ""Geographic Data Science with Python is an essential resource for data scientists looking to extend their skills into the geographic domain and for geographers looking to add data science skills. The book's approach achieves a highly effective balance between introducing theoretical concepts and applying them to practical examples. The book also serves as a guide to the modern open source spatial Python stack. The accompanying interactive Jupyter notebooks are great resources for running what-if scenarios to extend the concepts introduced in the book and for getting started with new projects. If you want to understand the unique properties of spatial data and how to apply them in creative ways using Python, this book is a must have."" - David C. Folch, Associate Professor, Northern Arizona University"
