Geocoding with Geopy and big data


I have this CSV file which i'm feeding with this python script

    import csv
from geopy.geocoders import OpenCage

geolocator = OpenCage() #here some parameters are needed
with open('/Users/Ian/Desktop/Test02/151213_2015_martyrs_year_filtered_areas.csv', 'rb') as csvinput:
    with open('151213_locations_filtered_opencage.csv', 'w') as csvoutput:
       output_fieldnames = ['Province','Area', 'Country','Latitude','Longitude']
       writer = csv.DictWriter(csvoutput, delimiter=',', fieldnames=output_fieldnames)
       reader = csv.DictReader(csvinput)
       for row in reader:
            #here you have to replace the dict item by your csv column names
            query = ','.join(str(x) for x in (row['Country'],row['Province'],row['Area']))
            print(query)

            try:
                address, (latitude, longitude) = geolocator.geocode(query)

            except:
                latitude = 'N/A'
                longitude = 'N/A'

            #here is the writing section
            output_row = {}
            output_row['Province'] = row['Province']
            output_row['Area'] = row['Area']

There are 15k+ lines of this and as you may notice some places have the same entries several times. My workflow was to get the data from the sqlite database into this big csv. After that i filtered doubled entries so I just got every place/province once. Therefore it was possible to decrease the query for the geocoder (I was so naive to think that you don't have a limit at all). My problem now is that I have two datasets which I can't put together again because simple "search and replace all entries" with the latitude/longitude information would be still a difficult and time-wasting task. Also because the entries numbers wouldn't match. I have two ideas and I for both of them I have no clue how to get there because I'm new to python and I was working all day on this data.

  1. Automate the process of search and replace (Province/Area) with (Province/Area,Latitude,Longitude)
  2. Per incident I have several people who died at the same place on the same date. I could technically sum them up so the whole data woud become smaller (Where should I do this. In SQLite oder in Python with the csv). So i could query this data to the geocoder so I have a whole file again. Something like this where I would query the Province and the area to the geocoder:

     rowid,Value_by_People,Status,Province,Area,Date_of_Death,Cause_of_Death

Thank you for your ideas

EDIT1

query = ','.join(str(x) for x in (row['Country'],row['Province'],row['Area']))
            errorquery = ','.join(str(x) for x in (row['Province'],row['Country']))
            print(query)

            try:
                address, (latitude, longitude) = geolocator.geocode(query)

            except:
                address, (latitude, longitude) = geolocator.geocode(errorquery)
                #latitude = 'N/A'
                #longitude = 'N/A'

EDIT 3

I tried the changes but i cant get it working

import csv

geolocator = GoogleV3() #here some parameters are needed
lookups = {} # declare this above the loop
global tempquery
global latitude, longitude

def lookup_location(query, errorquery, lookups):
    tempquery = query

    try:
        address, (latitude, longitude) = lookups[query]
    except KeyError: # new lookup
        try:
            #address, (latitude, longitude) = geolocator.geocode(query)
            address, (latitude, longitude) = lookups[errorquery]
        except: # should probably try to catch specific exceptions
            #address = latitude = longitude = None
            try:
                address, (latitude, longitude) = geolocator.geocode(query)
                #address, (latitude, longitude) = lookups[errorquery]
            except KeyError: # new lookup

                    address = latitude = longitude = 'None'
                    tempquery = errorquery
            lookups[tempquery] = address, (latitude, longitude)
    return address, latitude, longitude

Solution

  • I changed the code a little bit so it worked for me. Thank you for your ideas and the help.
