Python 3.7 - Adding mapping functionality to existing SQL data
#1
Hi there,

I have a Python application which connects to a SQL database. This allows the user to enter data via a form.
They want to be able to add a point geometry onto a map related for the currently edited feature.
I have a Geometry field added to the SQL database but I am trying to figure out if I can include a mapping component which allows the user to enter a point, and even better show their GPS location if they are using this out in the field. Down the track I'd have the map embedded into the frame.

I have tried a few things but I can't seem to figure out where to start. All examples seem to deal with loading existing data into a map.

If there is a possibility for this to work are there any resources you can suggest I look into?
Open Street Maps with aerial imagery would be ideal.

Regards

I'm not sure what your question is, but it doesn't seem to be about Python.

Sorry I should be more to the point.

Has anybody here created a Python application that allows the user to place a point on a map?
If so can you mention some modules that I would find useful to do this?

Regards,
