Funding
The data and lessons in this workshop were originally developed through a hackathon funded by the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) - an NSF funded observatory in Boulder, Colorado - in collaboration with Data Carpentry, SESYNC and CYVERSE. NEON is collecting data for 30 years to help scientists understand how aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems are changing.
Thanks Geospatial R Authors!
This lesson would not be possible without the many contributions from the authors of the Introduction to Geospatial Raster and Vector Data with R and Introduction to Geospatial Concepts lessons. These lessons have served as templates for this geospatial python lesson.
