Creating maps using Python Notebooks and GeoPandas
Python has powerful libraries like GeoPandas that can handle large amounts of data to create maps. The code in the attached python notebook reads a file containing postcode and geometry of each postcode in the form of polygon. It then generates Australia’s and each state’s map according to postcode distribution. It also determines postcodes with biggest area by projecting given postcode polygons in appropriate projected coordinates and calculating area in sq. km. The result is a series of visually appealing maps and charts that are generated on the fly.
