python中的交互式Choropleth映射

Looking for a simple python library to create a choropleth map for your next web app or blog? Spent hours online looking for tutorials on how to get started? While there are a lot of popular libraries that can get you started with the simple implementation of static choropleth maps(matplotlib, seaborn etc), if Interactivity is what you are looking for, this is the article for you! While there are libraries like d3.js which can build custom maps, there are few simpler tools that you can explore. This blog talks about 3 such easy to implement but powerful opensource python libraries!

是否正在寻找一个简单的python库来为您的下一个Web应用程序或博客创建一个Choropleth映射？ 在线花费了几个小时，寻找有关如何入门的教程？ 虽然有很多流行的库可以让您开始使用简单的静态Choropleth贴图(matplotlib，seaborn等)，但是如果您正在寻找Interactivity，那么这是为您准备的文章！ 尽管有诸如d3.js之类的库可以构建自定义地图，但是您可以探索一些更简单的工具。 该博客讨论了3种如此易于实现但功能强大的开源python库！

不知所措并迷失在文档中？ (Overwhelmed and lost in Documentation?)

Few months back , I wanted to create an interactive map for an interesting web app that we were developing. I spent hours online looking for the perfect library to get started with,but found it very difficult to run through the documentations, for there was no proper step by step guide for implementation and customizing the visuals as required. I wish I had a guide that compared the features and a proper implementation along with the details about customization.

几个月前，我想为我们正在开发的有趣的Web应用程序创建一个交互式地图。 我花了数小时在网上寻找一个理想的入门库，但是发现很难浏览所有文档，因为没有适当的逐步指南来实现所需的实现和自定义视觉效果。 我希望我能有一份指南，比较功能和适当的实现以及有关自定义的详细信息。

This is an attempt to create such a guide.The following write-up compares and contrasts the implementation of an interactive choropleth map along with the details and possible customizations to get the final output as required, using three of the popular map libraries available for Python —

这是尝试创建这样的指南的方法。下面的文章使用三个可用的Python流行地图库，将交互式Choropleth映射的实现与细节和可能的自定义进行比较和对比，以根据需要获得最终输出。 -

1. Altair —Simple and fast implementation with readily available set of features and pre-defined functionalities.

   Altair-简单，快速的实施，具有随时可用的一组功能和预定义的功能。

2. Plotly — Variety of available implementations including Mapbox,Custom configurations and styling.

   Plotly-各种可用的实现，包括Mapbox，自定义配置和样式。

3. Folium — Leaflet implementation with complete customization and interactivity including tool-tips, pop-ups and a lot more features.

   Folium —具有完全自定义和交互性的传单实施，包括工具提示，弹出窗口和更多功能。

先决条件 (Prerequisites)

Choropleth maps require two kind of data in the background, one is the geospatial data — geographical boundaries to populate the tiles(generally Shape files or Geo JSONs)and two, data points against each tile in order to color code the map based on what that data represents.

Choropleth地图在后台需要两种数据，一种是地理空间数据-用于填充图块(通常为Shape文件或Geo JSON)的地理边界，而另一种是针对每个图块的数据点，以便根据该图为地图进行颜色编码数据代表。

Geo Pandas library is useful to get the data in the required format. This example uses a GeoJSON file of Indian states to populate data on top of India Map. You can get started with any publicly available shape file/GeoJSON.

Geo Pandas库对于获取所需格式的数据很有用。 本示例使用印度各州的GeoJSON文件在印度地图上填充数据。 您可以开始使用任何公开可用的形状文件/ GeoJSON。
