Creating Beautiful Geospatial visualisations with Python - Scipy 2022 Workshop

Earlier this year I was invited to give a workshop at the annual Scipy conference in Austin Texas on how to make beautiful geospatial data visualisations using Python. The workshop was recorded and is now available on youtube and is linked below. While there is a fair amount of rambling we do cover a wide range of topics, including;

• How to use Geopandas to manipulate and plot Shapely Points, LineStrings and Polygons.
• How to use Rasterio to manipulate and plot rasters e.g. Satellite imagery.
• Using Geopandas, Cartopy, Rasterio, Proj and Rioxarray to reproject geospatial data.
• Combining rasters and shapes into a single plot.
