AACC – Spring 2023 – CTS-233-400 – DEVASC 200-901: Lab 4.5.5 – Part #4: Integrate the MapQuest REST API with a Python Script

In this video, we now start our journey using #python and the MapQuest API in Lab 4.9.2 – Part #4. We discuss the ‘requests’ and urllib.parse libraries and how each of them work, we then start our Python script creating variables to be used with urllib.parse.urlencode() method which will construct our HTTP GET reqeust URI. We see how to parse and retrieve status codes, parse the JSON data to pull our values of interest and much, much more! Enjoy!
