Scrape tree data from OpenTreeMap #167

Closed carpetofgreenness closed 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I want to know where all the edible trees are.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to see a pin on every edible tree in Philadelphia, specifically Juneberries, Mulberries, and Ginkos. The location data for these trees should be scraped from OpenTreeMap using Python.

Describe alternatives you've considered We considered using the Philadelphia Street Tree Inventory, but that data seemed out of date. We also considered using iNaturalist, but they didn't have a large amount of data.

Additional context Should we retrieve the data by downloading CSV files? Should we use selenium to navigate the web page on OpenTreeMap? We'll need to decide.
