Code Samples written in Python

Match Address and Append Data Python

Match address and output to .CSV

This sample demonstrates the process of reading a .csv (comma delimited) file that contains address information, making a geocode request using the Lightbox Geocoding endpoint, and writing the result back to out output .csf file.

In this example we will demonstrate:

  • Reading a .csv file using the csv python library
  • Making a LightBox geocoding request in a multi threaded approach using the python thread library 
  • Reading the geocode response as json
  • Writing the response to an output .csv file

 

LightBox API to Shapefile

LightBox API to Shapefile Python Sample

In this example we demonstrate the steps to connect to the LightBox Geocoding API, obtain the coordinates of a subject property, and using those coordinates, select a set of building footprints around a radius of that location. If successful the python script  will use the Shapely and Fiona libraries to export the result to a shapefile.
