A simple and consistent Python geocoding library that provides a unified interface to many geocoding providers such as Google, Bing, OpenCage, ArcGIS, TomTom, and HERE. It supports forward and reverse geocoding, house address lookup, IP address geolocation, and includes a command-line interface.

Use cases

• convert addresses to latitude and longitude in python
• reverse geocode coordinates to addresses
• geocode ip addresses to locations
• use one api for multiple geocoding providers like google and bing
• geocode from the command line
• get bounding boxes for geocoded locations

When to choose

• you need a single consistent python api across many geocoding providers
• you want quick forward/reverse geocoding or ip lookup without parsing provider-specific
• you want a lightweight library with a cli for ad-hoc geocoding

When to avoid

• you need heavy-duty batch geocoding at scale with rate-limit handling and caching
• you need offline geocoding without external provider apis
• you need actively developed features - the project is largely in maintenance mode
