-  * An App Token is used to authenticate and access data from web services. This token ensures secure and authorized access to the geospatial data. By integrating APIs in Python, users can automate geoprocessing tasks, such as spatial analysis, data conversion, and map production.

By integrating APIs in Python, users can automate geoprocessing tasks, such as spatial analysis, data conversion, and map production. We will be using the Socrata Open Data API (SODA) with the Socrata Query Language (SoQL), you can:
+  - **Access and visualize geospatial data**: Retrieve data from Socrata servers and display it on interactive maps.
+  - **Perform spatial analysis**: Conduct operations like filtering, sorting, and aggregating geospatial data using SoQL queries.
+  - **Manage GIS data**: Create, update, and delete spatial datasets and manage user permissions.
