This repository is for comparing Python libraries for data visualization, exploring what's possible, and discussing their strengths and weaknesses.
Heat maps with Folium. Making an interactive heat map of all the coffee shops in the United States. Data gathered from Open Street Map.
Bar charts comparison. How easy is it to make a humble bar chart using different Python visualization modules?
Choropleths with Geopandas and Folium. Mapping Internet usage by country.
Geographic projection comparison. How easy is it to make a map projection with different Python spatial-aware modules?
Styling maps with Geopandas and matplotlib. Making a fantasy-style map of Middle Earth.
For the libraries that output Javascript (Folium, Bokeh, Altair, sometimes Plotly), I link the Notebook Viewer page for this repository.
Dependencies:
- Anaconda (Python 3)
- Basemap
- GeoPandas
