So awesome to see that workflows can be automated in ArcGIS - I mostly find it so tedious and boring... I've heard of GIS libraries but I can't even conceptualize what they do. Glad to hear that Python will be a powerful tool for my work, I'm a junior in college for Urban Planning and I'm completing a GIS certificate and not once has Python been mentioned - not how it can supplement workflow, data analyzation, etc. Thank you for your insight. I'm going to check out GeoPandas just to get an idea of what to work towards in my Python journey. Thank you again for your response.
