How far is my locality?

Objective:

Find the distance of all localities in a city from a desired locality.

Tools:

  • Python
  • Geocoding libraries - pgeocode, geopy, geocoder
  • Open data of location from govt websites

Steps:

  • This can approached in two ways by computing distance between using

    • pincodes
    • longtidues-latitudes
  • Three methods have been tried to converge at better results:

    1. pgeocode - Postal code geocoding and distance calculations
    2. geopy - Distance between localities using longitude & latitude
    3. geocoder & geopy - Get Latitude & longitude of localities & compute distance using geopy
