License and terms of usage

We updated resources from last years' courses (since 2018 on-wards), which contain remixed materials from Henrikki Tenkanen's GeoPython and AutoGIS courses from the University of Helsinki, under CC-BY-SA from from GitHub. There, you can also find information how to use the materials and modify them to your own purposes. However, if you modify the lesson materials we wish that you would also share your materials openly e.g. on GitHub where everyone could benefit from you work, in a similar manner as we provide these materials for you.

In consequence, we also share our revised materials under CC-BY-SA

Our materials and code snippets are licensed as explained below:
