distance-calc

A Python-based distance calculator to help determine how far new apartment complexes are from the office.

Scripts

  • gcoder.py - Takes an address on the command line and returns its latitude and longitude. May use one of four different geocoding engines.
  • dcalc.py - Takes an address on the command line and returns its latitude and longitude, distance from the VMware Carbon Black Boulder office, and projected drive time to the Boulder office. Uses Google APIs.
  • batch_distance.py - Same as dcalc, but uses CSV files for input and output.

Configuration File

All scripts make use of a configuration file, called geoapi.ini by default, that contains the API keys. Copy the file geoapi.ini.template and add your API keys. You can also specify a different configuration file with the -C or --config option to each script.
