Summary

In this chapter we learned how to create three very real-world products used in government, science, and industry every day. Except where this analysis is typically done with "black box" packages costing thousands of dollars, we were able to use very minimal and free cross-platform Python tools. And in addition to the examples in this chapter you now have some more reusable functions, algorithms, and processing frameworks for other advanced analysis.

In the next chapter we'll move into a relatively new area of geospatial analysis: real-time and near-real time data.
