Yes, you use that shapefile. The script that loads the data is also in the presentation, go to slide 68 (in the `LayerMapping` section). > - on slide 41, there is an Address model, does GeoDjango provide geocoding > which converts it to (lat, lon) for spatial query? If not, does it mean that > one has to query Google/Yahoo/MSFT WebServices? No, GeoDjango does not provide geocoding services. Geopy [1] is a popular Python geocoding interface.
