Luis Aguilar is the new Tutor for the course. Welcome, Luis. He'll be in touch with respect to setting office hours and contact info.
Members of the IPython team will be visiting for a Q&A session next Thursday April 17. Let's give some thought to questions you have.
Note what I assigned last time -- which I've now formally put into bCourses: Project Progress Report 1a: link to project repos and to starter notebook
I've read all the progress reports. I asked for information about your individual role in the project, and what you're doing personally. I gave reports 4/4 this time -- but will not do so unless I see some description of what you are doing individually as part of your project.
http://www.mapshaper.org/ is the web interface to convert among shapefiles, geojson, and topojson I wanted to show you last time.
