Mapping and Data Visualization with Python
I participated in a hands-on workshop called Mapping and Data Visualization with Python, where I learned how to create interactive maps using Python tools like the leafmap library. The workshop focused on working with geographic data and turning it into clear, visual maps that people can explore.
During the session, I followed along with examples and built my own maps using different types of data, including large datasets and satellite images. I also learned how to use tools like pandas and geopandas to organize and analyze data before visualizing it. The workshop showed how to add features like sliders and other interactive elements to better understand changes in data over time.
From this experience, I gained useful skills in data visualization and learned how to present complex information in a simple and engaging way. These skills can be applied to areas like business, research, and data analysis.
