The new Github repository OpenGovernmentVienna has already been created including a very nice addition by Christian.

The script executes the following steps:

  1. Download Vienna map including district boundaries from http://data.wien.gv.at.
  2. Download population and district size from https://www.wien.gv.at/statistik, calculate population density.
  3. Plot Vienna map coloured by population density.
