Unable to create a Graphml file

Hello!! I'm interested in learning about how to apply A*search in real-world mapping

I'm encountering an issue with the graphml creation.

I managed to create a map.xml file using the fetch.py
But when it came to the graphHandler.py, I'm having issues with converting the map.xml file to a graphml file.

I have tried to alter the code multiple times to make it work, but none were successful.

The error that I'm getting initially was - UnicodeDecodeError: 'charmap' codec can't decode byte 0x8f in position 57355: character maps to

But when I tried to convert the xml file to utf-8, it still didn't work.

I'm very sorry for the inconvenience, but how could i solve this issue?? and what is the proper order of running the program?
