Interactive Mapmaking with Python

" summary

Shows actual code paths and limits: geopandas -> GeoDataFrame plotting, then examples with folium (GeoJson, marker clusters, heatmaps) and where browser DOM blows up, then kepler.gl for GPU-backed millions-of-points and spatiotemporal timelines, plus Plotly/Bokeh variants. Claims a one‑line wrapper called Geopatra (GitHub linked) that turns geodataframe.folium.plot() into defaults so choropleths, H3 grids, cluster/heat maps and Kepler exports work with one call.
