traceplot 1.0.3

Static map generator with points plots.

Traceplot

Traceplot is a library to generate static maps and plot points on it. You can download background maps from mapping services (Google Maps, Mapbox, OSM, ...) and plot your points on top. You can add markers, title, elevation graphs and more.

Here is a result you can get:

Installation

Traceplot is available on Pypi:

# Using uv
uv add traceplot
# Using pip
pip install traceplot

Usage

See more code in examples folder for loading points from GPX.

from traceplot.Trace import Trace
from traceplot.types import PointGeo
from traceplot.BackgroundImage import BackgroundImage

points_geo_manual: list[PointGeo] = [
    PointGeo(2.282259089265323, 48.88677456721743, 50),
    PointGeo(2.2746338, 48.8589385, 52),
    PointGeo(2.3850533122051463, 48.82797239213328, 60),
]

t: Trace = Trace(points_geo=points_geo_manual)

t.addBackgroundImage(
    background_img=BackgroundImage(
        bbox=(2.117, 48.704, 2.557, 48.994), image_path="out/background_paris.png"
    )
)
t.addMarker(
    points_geo[0],
    img_path="img/marker_start.png",
    label_text="Start",
    marker_scale=0.5,
    label_offset_x=0.05,
    label_box=dict(
        boxstyle="round",
        edgecolor=(1.0, 0.1, 0.4, 0.6),
        facecolor=(1.0, 0.8, 0.8, .7),
    ),
    fontfamily="monospace",
)
t.addElevationGraph(height_pct=0.17, backgroundColor="white", backgroundColorAlpha=0.6)
t.plotPoints(format_string="-r", linewidth=6, alpha=.25)
t.addTitle("Around Paris", center_x=0.5, center_y=0.2, fontsize=30, fontstyle="italic")
t.save("out/day_one.png")
t.show()
t.close()
