Lingtypology

Lingtypology is a package that tries to bring functionality of the R package of the same name.
By now lingtypology is able to create interactive linguistic maps and has API for several linguistic databases.
There is a tutorial that allows to start using lingtypology:

  1. Interactive linguistic maps
  2. Glottolog
  3. API for Wals, Autotyp etc.

Credits

This Python package is inspired by the R package made by agricolamz.
Also this module uses JavaScript library Leaflet and its Python-wrapper Folium and Branca.
Also, special thanks to Xrotwang for helping me with the package.
