The Python Pandas library makes data analysis fast and intuitive. Learn how to load datasets, filter and transform data, perform basic calculations, and export results - all using Pandas. Stacy will present a beginner-friendly workflow using Python Notebooks, tailor made for rapid experimentation and iteration.


The Pandas library for Python streamlines data analysis by making number crunching both fast and intuitive. It excels at handling common “load-calculate-save” workflows with concise, readable code—ideal for everyday data tasks.

In this practical lightning talk, we’ll walk through a beginner-friendly workflow using Python notebooks, designed for rapid experimentation and iteration. Attendees will learn how to:
• Load datasets
• Filter and transform data
• Perform basic calculations
• Export results
— all using Pandas.

To help participants get started quickly, a GitHub repository will be shared containing a minimal working setup. This ready-to-clone configuration will enable attendees to dive into their own analyses with ease.

Stacy is an Associate Software Engineer at Abley. He has a PhD in Mechanical Engineering, which started him on a path of spatial software development using JavaScript and Python to solve wickedly complex problems across a variety of domains.
