# DS course Python for GIS and Geoscience, September 2024
## README
------------- *do not change this section* -------------
## make a title
For each of the following sections/questions, add your answer to the list. In case your answer is already enlisted by someone else, do NOT add the answer as a new item, but provide a `*` sign before the answer.
As a dummy example, suppose the question: *What's your favorite Simpson character?* and the current answers are:
```
* Bart
* Lisa
```
and your answer would be *Bart*; the result after your edit will be (adding a `*` in front of Bart):
```
** Bart
* Lisa
```
__! Respond in between the triple ticks.__
If your answer would be *Homer*; the result after your edit will be (Adding Homer to the list with a single `*` in front):
```
* Bart
* Lisa
* Homer
```
__! Respond in between the triple ticks!.__
OK? Ready to go. From now on it is up to you...
### I'm working with Python since...
(*respond with a year by adding a star in front, e.g.`2022`*)
```
** 2024
* 2023
**** 2022
**2021
*2020
2019

_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## My first programming language was...
(_R, python, Pascal, C++,..._)
```
***** Python
*** Matlab
* C

* java
```
_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## I have experience with the following programming languages:
(*multiple answers are possible*)
```

_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## I do GIS operations currently mostly in/with...
(_for example `QGIS`, `Python`, `R`, `Idrisi`, `SAGA`, `GDAL`, `postgis`, `ArcGIS`,...)
```
******* QGIS *
**** R studio
* Matlab
* python

_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## The size of the GIS data sets I'm typically working with are around...
(*If it does not fit with the size ranges already defined, you can express as well in number of lines, size on your hard-drive, number/size of images, dbase size,...*)
```
< 1MB
1MB < . < 10MB
** 10MB < . < 100MB
****** 100MB < . < 1GB
**** 1GB < . < 10GB
10GB < . < 100GB
100GB < . < 1TB
> 1TB
```
_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## The GIS data I use are stored as...
(_for example `geotiff`, `netcdf/HDF5`, `shapefile`, `geodatabase`, `geojson`, `postgis`, `geopackage`, `CSV`,..._)
```
******* geotiff
************ shapefile
** netcdf
******** csv
* geojson
```
_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## Currently, I mainly do non-GIS data manipulation with...
(_for example `python`, `R`, `excel`, `SQL`, `bash`, `matlab`,..._)
```
**** Python
** Excel
******* R studio
```
_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## Python packages/modules I'm using a lot:
(_hence, what you typical `import ...` to start with; multiple answers are possible_)
```
**** matplotlib
****** pandas
**** numpy
```
_!! Respond in between the triple ticks!!._
## What I hope to learn this week...
```
** The Python syntax
***** How to use these packages for easier GIS data manipulation
*** How to efficiently use pyhton instead of QGIS
* How to efficiently use pyhton with QGIS
** Efficient methods for manipulating spatial data
