Slippy maps with folium+leaflet

• I have a problem
• I do not know JS
• I do not want to learn JS
• but I love leaflet maps...

My anti-gravity moment

My first folium map

import folium

width, height = 650, 500
radars = folium.Map(location=[40, -122], zoom_start=5,
                    tiles='OpenStreetMap',
                    width=width, height=height)

for name, location in locations.items():
    radars.simple_marker(location=location, popup=name)

The project is under active development

Examples

• SECOORA
• OOI
• Boston Light Swim

What to expect in the next few months

• leaflet plugins
  • leaflet.time.dimension
  • HeatCanvas
  • AnimatedMarker
  • geoCSV/Shapefile

Thank you!
