Using ipyleaflet widgets

ipyleaflet is described as a bridge for producing interactive maps in a Jupyter Notebook. This means we can put a map into a Notebook and allow the user to scroll around to a different point of view with this widget.

The documentation on the maps used is sparse. I have found a reasonable example in the following points. Finally, looking at the source code for the widget on GitHub, there are a few dozen maps visible that the widget knows about and which can be pulled in.

Getting ready

We can install the widget using a conda command:

conda install -c conda-forge ipyleaflet

ipyleaflets can be installed with pip as well.

Once completed, we can reference ipyleaflet in a Notebook.
