It’s been a while since I posted about what I’ve learned or worked on. Here are some things I’ve done since March:
Spatial Data Science: GIS, GeoPandas
A few months ago, I wrote about how I wanted to learn Spatial Data Science. Specifically, I wanted to learn GIS, GeoPandas, GeoJson and PySAL.
Shortly after that, I became the task lead on a project involving a data file at work. The task heavily involved GIS and GeoPandas, and I ended up learning many of the topics that I outlined on the blog post. The only exceptions were network analyses – which I didn’t cover – and buffer analyses and ArcOnline maps with comments – which I got help with. This project was quite expansive – so there’s a lot more to write about in future blog posts.
Beyond the technical analysis, I also created a slide deck (which involved lots of analyses of ridership data) that I presented to our group’s leadership.
I’ve also become the de facto project manager on this task, so I’m picking up some project management and process management skills.
