Description
Introduction to the development of geographic information systems apps using python programming languages and geo pandas Module. The course is for absolute beginners who want to learn programming in python with ease and in simplified form. We will go through three sections Programming algorithm combined with GIS software application architecture in the first section then Python Language in the second section and and finally GIS development in the third section as described below:

Firstly application architecture to let the students get a solid knowledge regarding web applications and its development parts as well as the programming languages used in each part. by the end of this section students will be able to chose their career path  and can differentiate between the programming languages and any application tier. Moreover they will be able use implement some important programming algorithms , draw flowcharts and present solutions in structured English.

Secondly  python as a programming language. The section aims to give students the ability to write code in python language and be able to convert any algorithm or flowchart into python code. All of the python coding programming paradigms needed for GIS development such as IF Statement, Loops, Functions, Modular programming will be on student hands by the end of this section.

Finally GIS Development section that is designed to fill the intersected skills between python programming and the geographic information systems to start professionally their career as GIS developers. the section focus on reading geodata from different file formats and process it then generate a map with some required feature.

Who this course is for:
Absolute beginners of programming who plan for career as GIS Developer
GIS Specialists, Students, Analysts, Developers and Consultants
Novice GIS Developers who want to learn python and programming.
