Develop Smart Maps with Python and Leaflet Windows Version Overview
Build the power of spatial data by developing smart maps with Python and Leaflet in this comprehensive course designed for the Windows environment. From setting up your development environment to building a full-featured GeoDjango application, this course will guide you through every step of creating interactive, data-driven maps. Youll learn how to leverage PostgreSQL and PostGIS to create spatial databases, write efficient GeoDjango back-end code, and build dynamic front-end interfaces using Leaflet.js. With hands-on projects and source code provided, youll gain the skills needed to create sophisticated mapping applications that can handle complex spatial data.
