Summary
Learn how built-in curated geographic data and computable geographic entities can help you make informative and interesting maps and geovisualizations using Wolfram Language. This lesson shows you how to easily get information about entities and the functions that work with geographic data. Improve your maps and plots with GIS data from external sources; Wolfram Language offers many tools with which to represent and process geographic data and then export to a variety of standard GIS data formats. Many examples of stylized maps with different backgrounds and treatments are shared.
