Summary:"This book provides the tools, the methods, and the theory to meet the challenges of contemporary data science applied to geographic problems and data. In the new world of pervasive, large, frequent, and rapid data, there are new opportunities to understand and analyze the role of geography in everyday life. Geographic Data Science with Python introduces a new way of thinking about analysis. Using geographical and computational reasoning, it shows the reader how to unlock new insights hidden within data. The book is structured around the excellent data science environment available in Python, providing examples and worked analyses for the reader to replicate, adapt, extend, and improve. This book codifies what a geographic data scientist does, and covers the crucial knowledge that these scientists need. It presents concepts in a far more geographic way than competing textbooks, covering spatial data, mapping and spatial statistics whilst covering concepts, such as clusters and outliers, as geographic
