LATITUDE = 0

Parameter with the default latitude position. This is overruled when the latitude option is provided in the init step.

init(geocode_vars={})

Initialise the geocoder service with an optional dictionary.

When the dictionary contains the element lat and/or lon, then these values are used to position the server.

locate(_=None)

Perform a geocoding to locate a server. In this case it will render a fixed position, so provinding the adress of the server is optional.
