INTRODUCTION TO GEOSPATIAL DATA SCIENCE (LIVE WORKSHOP) – Raster Data Edition
INTRODUCTION TO GEOSPATIAL DATA SCIENCE (LIVE WORKSHOP) – Raster Data Edition
- Recorded video file
- Workshop Code
ABOUT
Get ready to dive into one of the fundamental chapters of geospatial data science and spatial analytics—raster data—using Python. In this interactive 2-hour live workshop and Q&A session, you'll learn directly from me as we explore the core concepts and theoretical foundations of raster data. We will cover various sources of raster data and provide step-by-step guides and coding examples on how to download, parse, explore, process, and visualize them.
If you can't attend, no worries. I will send the recorded file of this live event.
Additionally, I would like to incorporate a section selected by you as part of the Q&A, so if you have any specific questions, topics, or datasets, make sure to reach out!
WHEN
- Online, Aug 8 Thursday, 19.00-21.00 CET
