This could be a conrad util that everyone can use in their crawlers.

Or a code snippet that anyone can copy|paste and use directly.

We could then give users nearby conferences using their location.

We can use https://geopy.readthedocs.io with MapBox!

Alas, data returned from the MapBox API can't be stored because of their terms of service :(

Could check out Here API or TomTom Both of em have a free tier and are pretty good.

Hi,

I am starting to work on this. Should I develop this as a custom module placed in the conrad/ folder, which can then be imported into the crawlers?
