World population map with GeoPandas
Today I had decided to plot my first plot using GeoPandas; and I am glad I could do it today.
Below is the plot of world-population. But the plot is not that important.
What is important is how I got to this point. After attaining some momentum with pandas almost six months ago; I could not do much with GeoPandas. The reason was when I downloaded GeoPandas; it also loaded it dependencies and disturbed by existing packages in Anaconda distribution on my Windows laptop. So I had to remove GeoPandas.
The solution, I understood, needed multiple separate environments. That is done by installing virtual environments. Here was where I lost the momentum.
The options to install virtual environments are many; and that needed me to understood what was relevant for me. Finally I figured that out today.
I opted to install the needed virtual environment using Anaconda GUI. I loaded the necessary packages. I was not clear what happens to the IDE. It also installed on its own.
I now hope to build on what I have learned today!
