Description

Welcome to the Smart Map In Python Tutorial Series. In this tutorial serieswe'll be building a python GIS application from scratch using a variety of opensource technologies. The purpose of this tutorial and many more to follow, is totake geospatial analytics and convert it into a functional application.We will be powering our application with a PostgreSQL and PostGIS database. Inthe front-end we'll use Bootstrap, JavaScript and Ajax. On the server side we'll beusing Python 3 Django combined with use of scientific libraries like pandas, forour data transformation and conversion operations. The operating system that wewill be working on is Ubuntu Linux 16.04.
