This is An Introduction to Python Programming with a GIS Focus. This course is designed to instill the basics of Python Programming by incrementally increasing your knowledge week-upon-week. Each week you will be given a new section of a workbook to fill out and by the end of this course you will have your very own Python reference handbook. So how does this course have a GIS focus? Simple, most elements of the course have GIS and geospatial data in mind. Instead of using non-descript variables and values, we will use terms such as population, city, x_coord, y_coord, and so on. This will aid participants with pinpointing how they can relate geospatial data to Python. There are some elements, for simplicity, we will use an alternate approach.  At the end of most sections we will have a ‘GIS Use Cases’ topic which will further demonstrate where the material from the section can be applied in GIS.

This course will always be free.
