Chapter 10. Visualizing Your Analysis
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Generating a leaflet web map with Folium
- Setting up TileStache to serve tiles
- Visualizing DEM data with Three.js
- Draping an orthophoto over a DEM
Introduction
The great part about geospatial analysis is visualization. This chapter is all about showing some ways to visualize your analysis results. Up to this point, we have used QGIS, leaflet, and Openlayers 3 to see our results. Here, we will concentrate on web mapping with some of the newest libraries to publish our data.
Most of this code will mix Python with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
