Pipelines for spatial data visualization in Python and R

I have written various posts covering spatial data visualization for supply chain analysis and management, in both R and Python. Relevant libraries comprise e.g. Leaflet in Python, leaflet in R, deckgl in R and ggmap in R. I have also demonstrated how one can create spatial data animations in R, using a framework build around ggmap and gganimate. In this post I want to introduce some exemplary…

In a previous post I demonstrated how one can generate map-based heatmap distribution plots using the Leaflet package in R. In that example I implemented a function that sends locations as strings to a Open Street Map API and then receives latitude and longitude coordinates as return values in JSON-format.

In this post I will demonstrate how one can use the osmdata package to realize the…
