Dynamic Mapping of the Progression of COVID-19 using Python Programming

[@malaymondal9953]

First of all i want to congrats GeoDelta Labs for your sequence of great geospatial video tutorial. Your tutorials are preety much helpful for me. I am looking for day to day new tropic tutorial in near future. Thank you GeoDelta for tutorials.

[@geodeltalabs]

Thank you :)

@@geodeltalabs That was an amazing video. I have done the tutorial on a kaggle kernel, but man, it does not work there, here is what it says: fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=figsize) /opt/conda/lib/python3.6/site-packages/geopandas/plotting.py:503: RuntimeWarning: More than 20 figures have been opened. Figures created through the pyplot interface (`matplotlib.pyplot.figure`) are retained until explicitly closed and may consume too much memory. (To control this warning, see the rcParam `figure.max_open_warning`). And it also shows all the images separetely What should I do to have the same thing you have, but on Kaggle?

@GeoDelta Labs I'm having same problem as @@c.d3304 faced. Would you please give a look.

Great video ! I am currently working on an academic project and your video was extremely helpful to me, thank you very much !

[@GeorgeTrialonis]

Hi, there. I have been following a few of your videos and I must say that I find them very interesting. I, too, love maps and map-making but I am just a beginner in all this. Could I ask you the following question, hoping that you could help me? I have the shapefile (plus other files) of a country and want to create a choropleth map on the basis of covid19 infections in two formats (excel and csv). How can I combine one or the other file (excel or csv) with the shapefile to create a choropleth map to show the various levels of infection in the 13 regions of the country? The shapefile has two columns, 'Name_of_Region' and 'geometry'. The excel / csv files have the following columns: 'Name_of_Region', 'Cases', 'Deaths'. The technologies I can use are: Anaconda, Spyder, Atom, Visual Studio and other IDEs. Also, I have created an environment just for geopandas in Anaconda. Thank you.

[@geodeltalabs]

Hi, it sounds like you can pretty much use the method explained in this tutorial for your specific case. Since you have the 'Name_of_Region' as a common column, you can do a merge operation to link the pandas dataframe and the geopandas geodataframe into one geodataframe. Did this work for you?

[@GeorgeTrialonis]

@@geodeltalabs Thank you for the answer. I used 'join' to merge the shapefile and the csv file, but I get an error: "ValueError: You are trying to merge on object and int64 columns. If you wish to proceed you should use pd.concat". If I interrogate for the columns of both files I get the following: a) for the csv file I get: Index(['PER', 'Cases'], dtype='object'), b) for the shapefile I get: Index(['PER', 'geometry'], dtype='object'). Both files share the 'PER' column which identifies the regions of the country.

@@GeorgeTrialonis try saving the csv as xls or xslx, the same format as the other file

hey great video!! just a question, i'm on mac, when i open it, it shows only the 1st date and the other picture are on the side (like a power point) (it opens with preview) but when i do a quick look, it works. how can i solve this?

write "pip install descartes" in ur notebook or terminal

[@kamalbhandari9705]

Great video, very precise, thank you. I would like to know how to make a dynamic, interactive covid-19 choropleth map, in which when a user hovers his mouse over a country, a text-box pops up and gives details about that country, like country name, total number of corona positive cases, cured ones and number of deaths till a particular date. Thank you.

[@geodeltalabs]

Hi, you can consider using a bit advanced library for mapping, like Dash/ Plotly, which can generate more advanced interactive type maps.

[@akshaysays994]

Sir i get 'cmap = OrRd' invalid sir.. Plz tell me.. And if i type world.plot its getting error..

The Descartes package is required for plotting polygons in geopandas..?? What shld i do??

Do a pip install descartes
