Description

Session Goal: The session aimed to explore the visualization of country-specific data on maps using GADM and manage .geojson files effectively for geospatial analysis.

Key Activities:

• Developed a structured approach to overlay data on maps using GADM, with code examples provided for implementation using Python and Geopandas.
• Conducted a directory check for .geojson files to ensure all necessary files were present for the analysis.
• Addressed troubleshooting steps for missing .geojson files, including verifying file locations and adjusting directories as needed.
• Provided a Python code snippet to handle specific filenames, ensuring certain files were excluded from processing.

Achievements:

• Successfully outlined the workflow for visualizing geospatial data using administrative boundaries from GADM.
• Identified and resolved issues related to missing or mislocated .geojson files, ensuring smooth file management.

Pending Tasks:

• Further testing of the geospatial visualization code with a complete set of .geojson files to validate the approach.
• Optimization of the file handling script to improve efficiency and accuracy.
