  • Download and expand the Zipfile located here to your V: drive.

  • This workspace contains folders containing NumPy, Pandas, and Geopandas exercises along with associated data. Complete the Jupyter notebooks in each folder. Note that HTML versions of each are included to guide what answers should look like.

  • Refer to the materials & videos covered in class on how each should be done. And remember to work independently on these problem sets and do not use AI chatbots or code completion in these exercises. All the information you was covered in the class exercises.

  • When complete, zip your workspace and submit to the Problem Set 5 entry in Canvas’s Assignment section.

  • You should use the gis Conda environment created here for these exercises (the Geopandas exercises require it).
