Alterlab Geopandas Agent Skill

Reads, writes, and analyzes geospatial vector data with the GeoPandas Python library (shapefiles, GeoJSON, GeoPackage), with PostGIS support and integration with matplotlib, folium, and cartopy. Use for spatial analysis and geometric operations — buffer analysis, spatial joins and overlays between datasets, dissolving boundaries, clipping, calculating areas and distances, reprojecting coordinate systems, choropleth mapping, or converting between vector file formats. This is for tabular vector data; for raster/satellite/DEM work, spectral indices (NDVI), or spatial ML on earth observation prefer the geomaster skill. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take alterlab-ieu/alterlab-geopandas from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference pip, uv. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
