0 0 1 minute read

In this article, we are going to write a python script to find the address of a specified latitude and longitude using the geopy module. The geopy module makes it easier to locate the coordinates of addresses, cities, countries, landmarks, and zipcode.

Installation:

To install GeoPy module, run the following command in your terminal.

pip install geopy

Step-by-step Approach:

Import the geopy module.
Initialize Nominatim API to get location from the input string.
Get location with geolocator.geocode() method.

Below is the program based on the above approach:

Python3

# Import module
from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim
 
# Initialize Nominatim API
geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="geoapiExercises")
 
# Assign Latitude & Longitude
Latitude = "25.594095"
Longitude = "85.137566"
 
# Displaying Latitude and Longitude
print("Latitude: ", Latitude)
print("Longitude: ", Longitude)
 
# Get location with geocode
location = geolocator.geocode(Latitude+","+Longitude)
 
# Display location
print("\nLocation of the given Latitude and Longitude:")
print(location)
