geopy

About

geopy is a Python client library for several geocoding web services. It provides forward and reverse geocoding, structured results, synchronous and asynchronous adapters, rate limiting, and distance helpers. The library abstracts service APIs but does not provide geocoding data or hosting itself.

Features

• Wraps multiple geocoding service APIs
• Supports forward and reverse geocoding
• Provides synchronous and asynchronous clients
• Includes rate limiting for bulk workflows
• Returns structured location and raw responses
• Calculates geodesic and great-circle distances
