Web-GIS & Python for Geospatial Analysis – AulaGEO | Udemy

Objective: This course aims to equip participants with the skills to develop and interact with spatial data for internet deployment using open source tools. By the end of the course, participants will be able to manage spatial data with PostgreSQL, stylize data using GeoServer, and deploy web maps using OpenLayers. Additionally, participants will gain proficiency in Python programming for geospatial analysis using ArcPy in ArcGIS Pro.

Target Audience: This course is designed for GIS professionals, developers, data scientists, and anyone interested in web-based geographic information systems (GIS). It is suitable for both beginners and those with some experience in GIS who wish to enhance their skills in using open source software and Python programming for geospatial data management and analysis.
