Course reviews
This is the course exactly what I was looking for. Ujaval knows how to teach, what to teach and how much to teach which is a huge plus point for a fresher. I am definitely enrolling to all the courses. Kudos Ujaval and Vigna.Keep up the good work.

The training course materials are very well prepared. The supplementary materials based on the response from the participants are great.

Understanding spatial data formats is always a challenge because no institution is going how to read them and how to use them in various projects. The support from Ujaval and Vigna is highly appreciated and i’m very thankful to both of them.

It’s fantastic attending this course. Learning to use Colab notebook for virtual analytics and processing large files (raster and vectors) from url and several python libraries was particularly significant for me.

Awesome! The exercises and examples were practical and useful for anyone who regularly works with spatial data and needs to visualize the results. Ujaval does a great job of making it approachable for everyone. This short course dramatically accelerated my process of learning python.
