Chapter 8. Advanced Geospatial Python Modelling
In this chapter, we'll build on the data processing concepts we've learned up to this point to create some full-scale information products. We will introduce some important geospatial algorithms commonly used in agriculture, emergency management, logistics, and other industries.
The products we will create are:
- A crop health map
- A flood inundation model
- A terrain routing map
While these products are task specific, the algorithms used to create them are widely applied in geospatial analysis. The examples in this chapter are longer and more involved than in the previous chapters. For that reason, there are far more code comments to make the programs easier to follow. We will also use more functions in these ...
