Full text geoparsing as a Python library. Extract the place names from a
piece of English-language text, resolve them to the correct place, and return
their coordinates and structured geographic information.

**Mordecai is ready for an upgrade!** Please take the user survey [here](https://z0l4ihmu0ud.typeform.com/to/b8FmCfMt) 
to help shape what v3 will look like.

Example usage
-------------

```
>>> from mordecai import Geoparser
>>> geo = Geoparser()
>>> geo.geoparse("I traveled from Oxford to Ottawa.")

[{'country_conf': 0.96474487,
  'country_predicted': 'GBR',
  'geo': {'admin1': 'England',
   'country_code3': 'GBR',
   'feature_class': 'P',
   'feature_code': 'PPLA2',
   'geonameid': '2640729',
   'lat': '51.75222',
   'lon': '-1.25596',
   'place_name': 'Oxford'},
  'spans': [{'end': 22, 'start': 16}],
  'word': 'Oxford'},
 {'country_conf': 0.83302397,
  'country_predicted': 'CAN',
  'geo': {'admin1': 'Ontario',
   'country_code3': 'CAN',
   'feature_class': 'P',
   'feature_code': 'PPLC',
   'geonameid': '6094817',
   'lat': '45.41117',
   'lon': '-75.69812',
   'place_name': 'Ottawa'},
  'spans': [{'end': 32, 'start': 26}],
  'word': 'Ottawa'}]
```

Mordecai requires a running Elasticsearch service with Geonames in it. See
"Installation" below for instructions.

Installation and Requirements
--------------------

1. Mordecai is on PyPI and can be installed for Python 3 with pip:

```
pip install mordecai
```

**Note**: It's *strongly* recommended that you run Mordecai in a virtual
environment. The libraries that Mordecai depends on are not always the most
recent versions and using a virtual environment prevents libraries from being
downgraded or running into other issues:

```
python -m venv mordecai-env
source mordecai-env/bin/activate
pip install mordecai
```

2. You should then download the required spaCy NLP model:

```
python -m spacy download en_core_web_lg
```

3. In order to work, Mordecai needs access to a Geonames gazetteer running in
Elasticsearch. The easiest way to set it up is by running the following
commands (you must have [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/engine/installation/)
installed first).

```
docker pull elasticsearch:5.5.2
wget https://andrewhalterman.com/files/geonames_index.tar.gz --output-file=wget_log.txt
tar -xzf geonames_index.tar.gz
docker run -d -p 127.0.0.1:9200:9200 -v $(pwd)/geonames_index/:/usr/share/elasticsearch/data elasticsearch:5.5.2
```

See the [es-geonames](https://github.com/openeventdata/es-geonames) for the code used
to produce this index.

To update the index, simply shut down the old container, re-download the index
from s3, and restart the container with the new index.

How does it work?
-----------------

Mordecai takes in unstructured text and returns structured geographic information extracted
from it.

- It uses [spaCy](https://github.com/explosion/spaCy/)'s named entity recognition to
  extract placenames from the text.

- It uses the [geonames](http://www.geonames.org/)
  gazetteer in an [Elasticsearch](https://www.elastic.co/products/elasticsearch) index 
  (with some custom logic) to find the potential coordinates of
  extracted place names.

- It uses neural networks implemented in [Keras](https://keras.io/) and trained on new annotated
  English-language data labeled with [Prodigy](https://prodi.gy/) to infer the correct country and correct gazetteer entries for each
  placename.

The training data for the two models includes copyrighted text so cannot be
shared freely. Applying Mordecai to non-English language text would require labeling data
in the target language and retraining.

API and Configuration
---------------------

When instantiating the `Geoparser()` module, the following options can be changed:

- `es_hosts` : List of hosts where the Geonames Elasticsearch service is
    running. Defaults to `['localhost']`, which is where it runs if you're using
    the default Docker setup described above.
- `es_port` : What port the Geonames Elasticsearch service is running on.
    Defaults to `9200`, which is where the Docker setup has it
- `es_ssl` : Whether Elasticsearch requires an SSL connection.
    Defaults to `False`.
- `es_auth` : Optional HTTP auth parameters to use with ES.
    If provided, it should be a two-tuple of `(user, password)`.
- `country_confidence` : Set the country model confidence below which no
    geolocation will be returned. If it's really low, the model's probably
    wrong and will return weird results. Defaults to `0.6`. 
- `verbose` : Return all the features used in the country picking model?
    Defaults to `False`. 
- `threads`: whether to use threads to make parallel queries to the
    Elasticsearch database. Defaults to `True`, which gives a ~6x speedup.

`geoparse` is the primary endpoint and the only one that most users will need.
Other, mostly internal, methods may be useful in some cases:

- `lookup_city` takes a city name, country, and (optionally) ADM1/state/governorate and 
    does a rule-based lookup for the city.
- `infer_country` take a document and attempts to infer the most probable
    country for each.
- `query_geonames` and `query_geonames_country` can be used for performing a
    search over Geonames in Elasticsearch
- methods with the `_feature` prefix are internal methods for
    calculating country picking features from text.

`batch_geoparse` takes in a list of documents and uses spaCy's `nlp.pipe`
method to process them more efficiently in the NLP step.

Advanced users on large machines can increase the `lru_cache` parameter from 250
to 1000. This will use more memory but will increase parsing speed.

Tests
-----

Mordecai includes unit tests. To run the tests, `cd` into the
`mordecai` directory and run:

```
pytest
```

The tests require access to a running Elastic/Geonames service to
complete. The tests are currently failing on TravisCI with an unexplained
segfault but run fine locally. Mordecai has only been tested with Python 3.
