Explore Mapzen as geocoder #17

Open stucka opened 8 years ago

@dannguyen has suggested we look at Mapzen, an open-source geocoder tool. Requires a different API key. Would free us of Google's terms of use, which essentially limit this to Google mapping products. We can use Mapzen geocoding for Google maps, however.

Dan points out PyGeo doesn't include support, but a JSON response would mean we wouldn't need to use PyGeo: https://gist.github.com/dannguyen/682f8c42c9f100405e04
