Python GeoPy Package: Find the latitude and longitude of a given location
Default Options Object (Nominatim API): Exercise-4 with Solution
Write a Python program to find the latitude and longitude of a given location using Nominatim API and Geopy package.
Sample Solution:
Python Code:
from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim
geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapiExercises")
ladd1 = "27488 Stanford Avenue, North Dakota"
print("Location address:",ladd1)
location = geolocator.geocode(ladd1)
print("Latitude and Longitude of the said address:")
print((location.latitude, location.longitude))
ladd2 = "380 New York St, Redlands, CA 92373"
print("\nLocation address:",ladd2)
location = geolocator.geocode(ladd2)
print("Latitude and Longitude of the said address:")
print((location.latitude, location.longitude))
ladd3 = "1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW"
print("\nLocation address:",ladd3)
location = geolocator.geocode(ladd3)
print("Latitude and Longitude of the said address:")
print((location.latitude, location.longitude))
Sample Output:
Location address: 27488 Stanford Avenue, North Dakota Latitude and Longitude of the said address: (47.470706, -99.704723) Location address: 380 New York St, Redlands, CA 92373 Latitude and Longitude of the said address: (34.05728435, -117.194132331602) Location address: 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Latitude and Longitude of the said address: (38.8976998, -77.0365534886228)

Python: Tips of the Day
Find current directory and file's directory:
To get the full path to the directory a Python file is contained in, write this in that file:
import os dir_path = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
(Note that the incantation above won't work if you've already used os.chdir() to change your current working directory, since the value of the __file__ constant is relative to the current working directory and is not changed by an os.chdir() call.)
To get the current working directory use
import os cwd = os.getcwd()
Documentation references for the modules, constants and functions used above:
- The os and os.path modules.
- The __file__ constant
- os.path.realpath(path) (returns "the canonical path of the specified filename, eliminating any symbolic links encountered in the path")
- os.path.dirname(path) (returns "the directory name of pathname path")
- os.getcwd() (returns "a string representing the current working directory")
- os.chdir(path) ("change the current working directory to path")
