In this chapter, we'll programmatically create dynamic maps using Python to control every aspect of the QGIS map canvas. We'll learn how to use custom symbology, labels, map bookmarks, and even real-time data. We'll also go beyond the canvas to create custom map tools. You will see that every aspect of QGIS is up for grabs with Python, to write your own application. Sometimes, the PyQGIS API may not directly support your application goal, but there is nearly always a way to accomplish what you set out to do with QGIS.
