Introduction

Tutorial of basic remote sensing and GIS methodologies using open source software (GDAL in Python)

Note on Python 2 vs Python 3

This tutorial will try to target either Python 2.7 or Python 3.4 and 3.5. To ensure you're using a compatible version of Python, you can run the following:

python --version

at the command line.

Python 3 has many great new features (more informative stack traces, better unicode handling, asyncio, matrix algebra notation using @, and more) and is the future of the language. Unfortunately, some scientific packages (QGIS, for example) have not yet completed the transition away from Python 2. Unless you have good reason to use Python 2 (like if you're writing a QGIS plugin in Python), the general concensus is to recommend using Python 3.
