Book Description
Geospatial analysis is industry agnostic and a powerful tool for answering location questions. Combined with the power of SQL, developers and analysts worldwide rely on database integration to solve real-world spatial problems. This book introduces skills to help you detect and quantify patterns in datasets through data exploration, visualization, data engineering, and the application of analysis and spatial techniques.
You will begin by exploring the fundamentals of geospatial analysis where you’ll learn about the importance of geospatial analysis and how location information enhances data exploration. Walter Tobler’s second law of geography states, “the phenomenon external to a geographic area of interest affects what goes on inside.” This quote will be the framework of the geospatial questions we will explore. You’ll then observe the framework of geospatial analysis using SQL while learning to create spatial databases and SQL queries and functions.
By the end of this book, you will have an expanded toolbox of analytic skills such as PostGIS and QGIS to explore data questions and analysis of spatial information.
What you will learn
- Understand geospatial fundamentals as a basis for learning spatial SQL
- Generate point, line, and polygon data with SQL

About the Author
Bonny P McClain applies advanced data analytics, including data engineering and geo-enrichment, to discussions of poverty, race, and gender. Racism, class exploitation, sexism, nationalism, and heterosexism all contribute to social inequality. Bonny redefines how we measure these attributes and how we can more accurately identify amenable interventions. Spatial data hosts a variety of physical and cultural features that reveal distribution patterns and help analysts and data professionals understand the underlying drivers of these patterns.
Bonny is a popular conference keynote and workshop leader. Her professional goals include exploring large datasets and curating empathetic answers to larger questions, making a big world seem smaller
