Iran Geography Data - Neighborhoods

This repository contains detailed geographical data for neighborhoods across Iran in JSON format. The data can be used for a variety of purposes, such as geospatial analysis, location-based services, or demographic studies.

File Overview

neighborhoods.json

The neighborhoods.json file includes structured data representing neighborhoods in Iran. Each entry contains information about a specific neighborhood, such as its name, city, province, and geographical boundaries (if applicable).

Features

• Comprehensive Data: Covers neighborhoods in multiple cities and provinces of Iran.
• JSON Format: Easy-to-use, human-readable, and compatible with most programming languages and tools.
• Geographical Information: May include boundaries or coordinates for spatial analysis.

Usage

Prerequisites

To use the data, you'll need basic knowledge of JSON and access to tools or programming languages that can parse JSON, such as:

• Python
• JavaScript
• R
• GIS software like QGIS or ArcGIS

Accessing the Data

Clone this repository to your local machine:

git clone https://github.com/babaie774/Iran-geography-data.git

Navigate to the file location:

cd Iran-geography-data

Sample Usage

Python Example

import json

# Load the data
with open('neighborhoods.json', 'r', encoding='utf-8') as file:
    neighborhoods = json.load(file)

# Example: Print all neighborhoods in a specific city
city_name = "Tehran"
for neighborhood in neighborhoods:
    if neighborhood['city'] == city_name:
        print(neighborhood)

JavaScript Example

const fs = require('fs');

// Load the data
fs.readFile('neighborhoods.json', 'utf8', (err, data) => {
    if (err) {
        console.error(err);
        return;
    }
    const neighborhoods = JSON.parse(data);

    // Example: Filter neighborhoods by province
    const provinceName = "Tehran Province";
    const filtered = neighborhoods.filter(n => n.province === provinceName);
    console.log(filtered);
});

GIS Software

You can convert neighborhoods.json into GeoJSON format (if not already in GeoJSON format) for direct use in GIS applications such as QGIS or ArcGIS.
