Beyond the Map

Geospatial Data Science Training

Geospatial data are increasingly common in World Bank analytics and operations, and with the professionalization of data science at the World Bank, we need to take geospatial data science more seriously. These courses are designed as an introduction to geospatial data, specific aspects of geospatial at the World Bank, and a portfolio of geospatial data science across the institution.

Organization

This geospatial training series is a collaboration across several World Bank departments. Spearheaded by the Geospatial Operations Support Team in support of the Data Academy, the course is supported by the Data Partnership, ITS GeoLab, DIME, and Innovation.
