In this video I’ll show you how to add Maps to your Tkinter apps Using the TkinterMapView Widget.

The TkinterMapView Widget was created by Tom Schimansky and allows you to drop maps into your apps using the OpenStreetMap system, or other map systems.

You can look up locations by coordinates, or by entering Addresses. Very Cool!

Python Code: map.py
(Github Code)

from tkinter import *
import tkintermapview

root = Tk()
root.title('Codemy.com - Tkinter MapView')
root.iconbitmap('c:/gui/codemy.ico')
root.geometry("900x700")

my_label = LabelFrame(root)
my_label.pack(pady=20)

map_widget = tkintermapview.TkinterMapView(my_label, width=800, height=600, corner_radius=0)
# Set Coordinates
#map_widget.set_position(36.1699, -115.1396) # Vegas Baby!

# Set Address
map_widget.set_address("10 West Elm St., Chicago, IL, United States")

# Set A Zoom Level
map_widget.set_zoom(20)


map_widget.pack()



root.mainloop()
