Geographic vs projected coordinates

The CRS attribute stores the information about the Coordinate Reference System in which the data is represented. In this exercises, we will explore the CRS and the coordinates of the districts dataset about the districts of Paris.

In this chapter, you will be introduced to the concepts of geospatial data, and more specifically of vector data. You will then learn how to represent such data in Python using the GeoPandas library, and the basics to read, explore and visualize such data. And you will exercise all this with some datasets about the city of Paris.

Exercise 1: Geospatial data Exercise 2: Restaurants in Paris Exercise 3: Adding a background map Exercise 4: Introduction to GeoPandas Exercise 5: Explore the Paris districts (I)Exercise 6: Explore the Paris districts (II)Exercise 7: The Paris restaurants as a GeoDataFrame Exercise 8: Exploring and visualizing spatial data Exercise 9: Visualizing the population density Exercise 10: Using pandas functionality: groupby Exercise 11: Plotting multiple layers

One of the key aspects of geospatial data is how they relate to each other in space. In this chapter, you will learn the different spatial relationships, and how to use them in Python to query the data or to perform spatial joins. Finally, you will also learn in more detail about choropleth visualizations.

Exercise 1: Shapely geometries and spatial relationships Exercise 2: Creating a Point geometry Exercise 3: Shapely's spatial methods Exercise 4: Spatial relationships with GeoPandas Exercise 5: In which district in the Eiffel Tower located?Exercise 6: How far is the closest restaurant?Exercise 7: The spatial join operation Exercise 8: Paris: spatial join of districts and bike stations Exercise 9: Map of tree density by district (1)Exercise 10: Map of tree density by district (2)Exercise 11: Choropleths Exercise 12: Equal interval choropleth Exercise 13: Quantiles choropleth Exercise 14: Compare classification algorithms

In this chapter, we will take a deeper look into how the coordinates of the geometries are expressed based on their Coordinate Reference System (CRS). You will learn the importance of those reference systems and how to handle it in practice with GeoPandas. Further, you will also learn how to create new geometries based on the spatial relationships, which will allow you to overlay spatial datasets. And you will further practice this all with Paris datasets!

In this final chapter, we leave the Paris data behind us, and apply everything we have learnt up to now on a brand new dataset about artisanal mining sites in Eastern Congo. Further, you will still learn some new spatial operations, how to apply custom spatial operations, and you will get a sneak preview into raster data.
