Geographical data is defined as the data which is relative to a certain location. As it is a location on earth we can represent it on a map. Representing geographical data on a map is easy using python libraries.
Python provides different open-source libraries for geographical data visualization. These libraries are easy to use and create highly interactive and visually appealing maps.
In this article, we will explore Folium, a python library which is used to create different types of geographical data visualizations. We will try and create different types of maps and markers on maps.
Implementation:
We will start by installing Folium using pip install folium.
- Importing required libraries
We will import folium which contains all the functions that are required for geographical data visualization.
import folium
- Exploring Folium
We will start exploring folium by creating a world map in just one line of code.
world_map = folium.Map()
