Pretty Maps

Tools to make pretty maps of areas of interest.

Usage

Assuming you have Python installed:

1. Install dependencies: pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Run make_map.py directly (python make_map.py), or import it into your own script. (See the __main__ block in make_map.py for example usage.)
3. Wait. It might take a few minutes (up to 10-ish) to download, cache, and draw all of the data for the region requested.

Platform

Only tested on Python 3.9 installed via Anaconda distribution on Ubuntu 20.04 via Windows Subsystem for Linux. YMMV. In particular, I have issues running on Windows due to an unhandled exception in the osmnx package. It can probably run in Google Colab if you're having issues.
