Title of the project:

Obtain the complete address using Geolocation in Python

Project short description:

Hello everyone!

In this tutorial, we are going to write Python code to get the complete address of a location just by entering the latitude and longitude of the required location.

We are going to use the GeoPy library in Python.

Prerequisites:

• Install Jupyter Notebook or any similar working environment with the latest version of Python installed.
• You must know the Python language and its GeoPy library. 

Step by step implementation:

1) Install the GeoPy library on your computer just by running the following command in your terminal:
pip install geopy

2) Import the GeoPy library.
from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim

3) Initialize Nominatim API.
Geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapiExercises")


4) Enter the latitude and longitude of the required location.
latitude=input("Latitude: ")
print("Latitude=",latitude)
longitude= input("Longitude: ")
print("Longitude=",longitude)

5) Finally, get the complete address.
Location=Geolocator.geocode(latitude+','+longitude)
print('The address is',Location)

Complete Code:

from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim
Geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapiExercises")
latitude=input("Latitude: ")
print("Latitude=",latitude)
longitude= input("Longitude: ")
print("Longitude=",longitude)
Location=Geolocator.geocode(latitude+','+longitude)
print('The address is',Location)

Output:

Latitude= 28.61319453937331
Longitude= 77.22953115519925
The address is Pandara Park, Chanakya Puri Tehsil, New Delhi, Delhi, India
