This workshop will provide an introduction to performing common GIS/geospatial tasks using Python geospatial tools such as OWSLib, Shapely, Fiona/Rasterio, and common geospatial libraries like GDAL, PROJ, pycsw, as well as other tools from the geopython toolchain.

MapServer is an Open Source platform for publishing spatial data and interactive mapping applications to the web. Learn how to set up and use one of the fastest map engines in the world!

GDAL 3.11 introduced a new command line interface (CLI), simply called "gdal", supplementing the traditional well-known GDAL utilities (gdal_translate, ogr2ogr, etc.), to provide users with a more uniform, predictable and user-friendly experience.
This workshop will give the opportunity to participants to get a hands-one experience to discover the capabilities of the new CLI through a series of exercices, including how to leverage them from Python.
