Map with closest filming places

This is a Python script that creates a map with the closest places from a database to the input place. The input latitude and longitude are used to search for the nearest places in the database, and these places are displayed on a map using the Folium library.

Prerequisites In order to use this script, you will need to have the following installed:

• Python3
• Folium
• Geopy

4. Run the script main.py using the following command:

python main.py <latitude> <longitude> <path_to_dataset>

5. Replace , , <path_to_dataset> with the latitude and longitude of the input place and the path to your dataset, where script will get filming positions(the example file you can see directly in the repository and it must have .list extension), respectively.(as path_to_dataset you can use locations.list from this repo, there are given more than 10k filming locations)

The script will generate a map in your default web browser showing the closest places to the input location.
