Attributeerror: 'Nonetype' Object has no attribute'latitude' _ Python

Question

I’ve seen some similar questions as mine here, but since I’m very new to Python, I’m not getting around to making my mistake. My program is very short, I simply want to find the coordinates of latitude and longitude from names of municipalities that I read from a CSV (Listaend.csv). When running the program I get the error message:

Traceback (Most recent call last): File "teste2.py", line 26, in print(Location.address) Attributeerror: 'Nonetype' Object has no attribute 'address'

The program is:

import geopandas as gpds
import pandas as pds 
from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim

df = pds.read_csv("ListaEnd.csv", encoding='UTF8')

geolocator = Nominatim(user_agent="Intro Geocode")
location = geolocator.geocode(df['Municipio'])

print(location.address)
print((location.latitude, location.longitude))

Any help is very valid, friends. Since now, it has been worth too much!!!

Answer 1

NoteType means that instead of an instance of any class you are working with, you received the value None. This usually means that the function called failed or returned an unexpected result.

In that case, maybe you can handle the mistake in a better way, like:

try:
    location = geolocator.geocode(df['Municipio'], timeout=10)
    print(location.address)
except AttributeError:
    print("Problema com os dados ou uma falha com o Geocode."
except GeocoderTimedOut:
    print("Um erro de timeout ocorreu.")
