geopy is a Python client for several popular geocoding web services.

geopy makes it easy for Python developers to locate the coordinates of addresses, cities, countries, and landmarks across the globe using third-party geocoders and other data sources.

geopy includes geocoder classes for the Google Geocoding API (V3), the Yahoo! geocoder, geocoder.us, Bing Maps API, and several more Geocoder API services. The various geocoder classes are located in geopy.geocoders.

Notes

• Having geopy.geocoders.google.GBadKeyError issues with Google geocoder? You can fix that by updating GeoPy and updating your code.

Installation

Using pip:

pip install geopy

Or, manually: Download the tarball from PyPI, unzip, and execute this in the same directory:

python setup.py install

Basic Geocoding

Examples

Using the GoogleV3 geocoder:

>>> from geopy import geocoders
>>> g = geocoders.GoogleV3()
>>> place, (lat, lng) = g.geocode("10900 Euclid Ave in Cleveland")
>>> print "%s: %.5f, %.5f" % (place, lat, lng)
10900 Euclid Ave, Cleveland, OH 44106, USA: 41.50489, -81.61027

Using the Yahoo! geocoder (requires an Application ID):

>>> from geopy import geocoders
>>> y = geocoders.Yahoo('YOUR_APP_ID_HERE')
>>> place, (lat, lng) = y.geocode("Thames Street, Newport, RI")
>>> print "%s: %.5f, %.5f" % (place, lat, lng)
[241-251] THAMES ST, NEWPORT, RI 02840, US: 41.48696, -71.31490
