Overview of this book
Geospatial analysis is used in almost every domain you can think of, including defense, farming, and even medicine. In this special 10th anniversary edition, you'll embark on an exhilarating geospatial analysis adventure using Python.
This fourth edition starts with the fundamental concepts, enhancing your expertise in geospatial analysis processes with the help of illustrations, basic formulas, and pseudocode for real-world applications. As you progress, you’ll explore the vast and intricate geospatial technology ecosystem, featuring thousands of software libraries and packages, each offering unique capabilities and insights. This book also explores practical Python GIS geospatial applications, remote sensing data, elevation data, and the dynamic world of geospatial modeling. It emphasizes the predictive and decision-making potential of geospatial technology, allowing you to visualize complex natural world concepts, such as environmental conservation, urban planning, and disaster management to make informed choices. You’ll also learn how to leverage Python to process real-time data and create valuable information products.
By the end of this book, you'll have acquired the knowledge and techniques needed to build a complete geospatial application that can generate a report and can be further customized for different purposes.
