Mapping Geodata with Folium

Folium is a python library used to create maps and to work with geo location data. For this post I compiled a non-inclusive list of the most emblematic footbal/soccer stadiums around the world and plot them on the map to show their location.

import folium

loc = 'Emblematic Footbal Stadiums Around the World'
title_html = '''
             <h3 align="center" style="font-size:16px"><b>{}</b></h3>
             '''.format(loc)   


m = folium.Map(
    location=[30.8082, -118.2474],
    zoom_start=3,
    tiles='Stamen Terrain')
