Uncovering Geologic Layers with Wolfram Language - Live Coding
Offered By: Wolfram via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore geologic layers of South Asia in this live coding session using Wolfram Language. Follow along as programmers tackle real-time problem-solving, from importing USGS shape data to unpacking geometry and investigating geological information. Learn to work with line segments, extract land regions by location, clean up geologic age acronyms, and convert periods to entities. Discover how to overlay world maps, compare country borders with geological boundaries, and utilize Wolfram Knowledgebase data for deeper insights. Gain practical experience in data importing, large dataset handling, and bug resolution while following a data science pipeline throughout this hands-on, interactive programming demonstration.
