This is the official github repository, for the articles, Making Cool Maps with Geopy and Folium and Your Cool Folium Maps on the Web published in TOWARDS DATA SCIENCE, created to share how to create an interactive map, visualizing African cities with Geopy and Folium, and how to finally deploy it to the web.

The interactive map was created with the folium package in python with the help of geopy. Interactive maps are a way to present data at particular geographic locations in an aesthetically pleasing way.

The map was deployed to the web with heroku. Here, you can see the steps taken to get this done.
