Quick hack to plot data on a map in python

I wanted to share a cool code mash up I did to show some stats about Err usage in the world.

The result is here, in blue roughly after a non reliable homebrew datamining from the apache logs:

  • in blue the "fidelity" of an installation
  • in red the "development" activity
  • I applied this tip

    As dependencies you gonna need :

  • matplotlib
  • GeoIP
  • Basemap
  • PyQT4 (but you can change the backend to your favorite toolkit)
  • Here is the full snippet :

    #! /usr/bin/python
    import matplotlib
    matplotlib.use('Qt4Agg')
    from datetime import datetime
    import os
    DIR = 'data/'
    
    dirList=os.listdir(DIR)
    
    unzip = lambda l:tuple(zip(*l))
    
    all_dates = {}
    for fname in dirList:
        if fname.startswith('gootz-access'):
            counts = {}
            d = datetime.strptime(fname.split('.')[1], '%Y-%m-%d')
            with open(DIR+fname) as f:
                data = f.readlines()
                for line in data:
                    if line.find('err/version') != -1:
                        addr = line.split('-')[0].strip()
                        if counts.has_key(addr):
                            counts[addr] += 1
                        else:
                            counts[addr] = 1
            all_dates[d] = counts
    
    sorted_dates = sorted(all_dates.keys())
    
    import GeoIP
    gi = GeoIP.open('GeoLiteCity.dat',GeoIP.GEOIP_STANDARD)
    
    insts_pos = {}
    devs_pos = {}
    
    for date in sorted_dates:
        for ip, count in all_dates[date].iteritems():
            record = gi.record_by_name(ip)
            if record and record['latitude']:
                lon = record['longitude']
                lat = record['latitude']
    
                toinc = devs_pos if count > 5 else insts_pos
                if toinc.has_key((lon,lat)):
                    toinc[(lon,lat)] += 1
                else:
                    toinc[(lon,lat)] = 1
    
    from mpl_toolkits.basemap import Basemap
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    import numpy as np
    # lon_0 is central longitude of robinson projection.
    # resolution = 'c' means use crude resolution coastlines.
    m = Basemap(projection='robin',lon_0=0,resolution='c')
    #set a background colour
    m.drawmapboundary(fill_color='#85A6D9')
    # draw coastlines, country boundaries, fill continents.
    m.fillcontinents(color='white',lake_color='#85A6D9')
    m.drawcoastlines(color='#6D5F47', linewidth=.4)
    m.drawcountries(color='#6D5F47', linewidth=.4)
