mapclassify implements a family of classification schemes for choropleth maps.
Its focus is on the determination of the number of classes, and the assignment
of observations to those classes. It is intended for use with upstream mapping
and geovisualization packages (see geopandas_ and geoplot_)
that handle the rendering of the maps.
For further theoretical background see "Choropleth Mapping_" in Rey, S.J., D. Arribas-Bel, and L.J. Wolf (2020) "Geographic Data Science with PySAL and the PyData Stack”.
