No mention of H3! The hexagonal spatial index https://eng.uber.com/h3/ . This library has been a game changer for my work. Before I had to create hexagonal grids using shapely and then use spatial joins to aggregate the data. With H3 you can go from a point to a hex really quickly.

Here’s the python wrapper for the library- https://github.com/uber/h3-py

Would any of these be useful for working with Johns Hopkins Covid-19 data? There are some web interfaces but analyzing and visualizing with Python would be more flexible.

Great article, very well written and clear. Also with COVID - very relevant for many of us.

Awesome list. I've been playing with Fiona for a few years, but I'll need to take a look at some of these other modules like Shapely.

We put together a list of free spatial analysis tools for Python. Please let us know your comments and/or ideas.

Cool, Might have to write a python submodule to use some of this sometime, since we do have a lot of geo data.

This is a great summary, I'll take a harder look at these

Thanks for putting this together, Pablo. Super insightful!

Great article!

Great Insight!
