Open Visualization Session Proposal: deck.gl, GeoArrow and Lonboard

[kylebarron]

Proposal

This is just a stub, but I propose to give a talk on the architecture of Lonboard, how it uses deck.gl, and how we can better integrate GeoArrow into deck.gl in the future.

There's some initial Arrow-deck.gl bindings in https://github.com/geoarrow/deck.gl-layers / https://github.com/visgl/deck.gl-community/tree/master/modules/arrow-layers

Topic of the session

Introducing GeoArrow, how GeoArrow can improve performance in deck.gl, how Lonboard makes use of GeoArrow and deck.gl to provide a fast visualization library for Python users.
