问题
I am trying to reverse geocode coordinates and retrieve corresponding country codes using geopy. However, Geopy does not seem to provide a method for fetching country codes. So, I am trying to retrieve country names first, and then convert them to codes. Unfortunately, my code gives me country names in non-English languages.
How can I fetch country names in English ?
My code:
geolocator = Nominatim()
....
with open('coordinates.txt' , 'r') as readfile:
for line in readfile:
fields = line.split("\t")
address, (latitude, longitude) = geolocator.reverse(fields[1]+","+fields[2])
if address:
address = address.split(",")
print "%s" % (address[-1])
The output I am getting:
Ελλάδα
Україна
Türkiye
Shqipëria
Tanzania
ኢትዮጵያ Ethiopia
Bosna i Hercegovina
Türkiye
Shqipëria
România
السودان - Sudan

Pass in the language parameter to the reverse()
request, e.g.:
geolocator.reverse(','.join(fields[1:3]), language='en')
