We’re pleased to announce that GeoDesk is now available for Python.
#GeoDesk is an #open-source toolkit for geographic object libraries, which store #OpenStreetMap data in a compact format and allow fast queries.

You may already know about our Java-based toolkit and the GOL tool that we’ve shipped last year. Feedback has been very positive overall, but there has been one recurring theme: What if you needed more complex queries than the #GOL tool provides, but weren’t ready (or willing) to build a full-blown Java application?

Our latest release bridges this gap and puts the ability to work with #OSM data into the hands of a much larger audience. Python scripts are easy to write (even a complete beginner can learn the basics in an afternoon) and open the door to a vast ecosystem of tools, from mapping to machine learning.

GeoDesk is 100% #FOSS, and has minimal hardware requirements. It currently supports #Python 3.7 or above, on Windows and Linux (MacOS support is experimental and limited to Catalina 10.15 or later).
