Question

I use GeoModel on app engine–super awesome, I love it for doing location based searches. However, I’d like to actualy also graph a geocell on to a map. Does anyone know how I can convert a geocell back to long/lat, such that I have 4 long/lat coordinates that define the vertices of the geocell?

Answer 1

Function compute_box (line 408 in geocell.py) takes the cell as an argument and returns the corresponding instance of geotypes.Box — an object with attributes east, west, south, north, corresponding to the min and max lat/long of the cell.

See geotypes.py line 47 for all details about the Box class.
