Talk: Mapping The PyData Community

You'll learn:

• How to scrape and prepare real-world data for analysis
• How geocoding transforms location data into map coordinates
• How to build interactive visualisations with Folium
• Tools and techniques to create your own community maps

This talk is perfect for anyone interested in web scraping, data visualisation, or community building. You'll leave with practical skills to map any community or dataset.
