Leafmap: Interactive Mapping & Geospatial Analysis in Python
Leafmap is an open-source Python package for interactive mapping and geospatial analysis — no heavy coding required. Built for Jupyter environments, it lets you explore, visualize, and analyze spatial data with just a few lines of code, or even no code at all.
Core capabilities include:
🗺 Interactive maps in one line — quickly load vector & raster data into a map
🗃 Multi-backend support — ipyleaflet, folium, kepler.gl, pydeck, bokeh
🌐 Basemap & tile services — OpenStreetMap, XYZ, WMS, vector tiles, and more
📊 Advanced visualization — split maps, linked maps, heatmaps, choropleths
🛰 Raster & vector analysis — powered by WhiteboxTools (500+ geospatial tools)
📍 Geodata editing & creation — draw, modify, and save features interactively
🔍 Data access & search — STAC, Planetary Computer, AWS Open Data, OpenStreetMap
📈 Time series & animations — visualize spatial change over time
🧠 AI integration — segment and classify imagery with deep learning tools
💻 Web app ready — deploy analyses with Voila, Streamlit, or Solara
Applications:
🔹 Remote sensing & environmental monitoring
🔹 Urban planning & infrastructure mapping
🔹 Disaster response & risk assessment
🔹 Education & citizen science projects
📖 Documentation: leafmap.org

Think Detroit is already a rough place to live?
A water main broke there on Monday and flooded the streets during freezing temperatures.

Have you ever wondered how to cite #Landsat data? If so, Landsat data citations can be found at the top of each of the data and science product pages. Those pages can be linked to from the Landsat Collection 2 page found here: ow.ly/9ali50UbuUA
#OpenData #DataCitation
ALT Line graph of the number of Landsat-related publications since 1970, showing the sharp increase after the open data policy in 2008. The following text is on top of the graph: From Satellites to Science: How to Cite Landsat Data

Today is #WorldShorebirdsDay! This diverse group of birds rely on river deltas and estuaries, such as those shown in these #EarthAsArt images, for breeding, feeding, and shelter. #Landsat plays a crucial role in monitoring coastal ecosystems and shorebird habitat. @ShorebirdsDay
