"Tobler's first law of geography states, "Everything is related to everything else, but near things are more related than distant things." But if you look at Tobler's second law, "Phenomena external to a geographic area of interest affect what goes on inside it," you can see why a geographer and data analyst brings the science of location into data stories and large-scale research projects. With this practical book, geospatial professionals, data scientists, geographers, geologists, and others familiar with data analysis and visualization will learn the fundamentals of spatial data analysis." -- Page 4 of cover.
