This project provides tools to play with geographical data. It also works with non-geographical data, except for map visualizations :).

There are embedded data sources in the project, but you can easily play with your own data in addition to the available ones. After data loading, you can:
– performs various types of queries ( find this key, or find keys with this property)
– fuzzy searches based on string distance ( find things roughly named like this)
– geographical searches ( find things next to this place)
– get results on a map, or export it as csv data, or as a Python object
