# python-geosupport
 [](https://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-geosupport/) [](https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-360/)
Geocode NYC addresses locally using Python bindings for NYC Planning's [Geosupport Desktop Edition](https://www1.nyc.gov/site/planning/data-maps/open-data/dwn-gde-home.page).
## Documentation
Check out documentation for installing and usage [here](https://python-geosupport.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
## Features
- Pythonic interface to all Geosupport functions
- Support for both Windows and Linux platforms
- Secure and fast using local geocoding - no API calls required
- Built-in error handling for Geosupport return codes
- Interactive help menu
## Compatibility
- Python 3.8+
- Tested on Geosupport Desktop Edition 25c
- Windows (64-bit & 32-bit) and Linux operating systems
## Quickstart
```bash
pip install python-geosupport
```
```python
# Import the library and create a `Geosupport` object.
from geosupport import Geosupport
g = Geosupport()
# Call the address processing function by name
result = g.address(house_number=125, street_name='Worth St', borough_code='Mn')
```
`result` is a dictionary with the output from Geosupport. For example:
```
{
'2010 Census Block': '1012',
'2010 Census Tract': '31',
'Assembly District': '65',
'Atomic Polygon': '112',
'B10SC - First Borough and Street Code': '14549001010',
'BOE Preferred B7SC': '14549001',
'BOE Preferred Street Name': 'WORTH STREET',
'BOROUGH BLOCK LOT (BBL)': {
'BOROUGH BLOCK LOT (BBL)': '1001680032',
'Borough Code': '1',
'Tax Block': '00168',
'Tax Lot': '0032'
},
'Blockface ID': '0212261942',
...
}
```
