Description: MapIt
        =====
        
        MapIt is an open source project to help people run a web service that maps
        geographical points to administrative areas. It is useful for anyone who has
        the co-ordinates of a point on Earth, and who needs to find out what country,
        region, city, constituency, or state it lies within. It’s also great for
        looking up the shapes of all those boundaries.
        
        It was created in 2003 by `mySociety <https://www.mysociety.org/>`__, a UK
        charity, for use by their various tools needing admin area lookup.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        MapIt can be installed as a Django app, or as a standalone server. For full
        details, please see our site at http://code.mapit.mysociety.org/ for help
        and documentation.
        
        Examples
        --------
        
        `mySociety <https://www.mysociety.org>`__ runs public installations of MapIt that
        you might be able to use:
        
            * `MapIt Global <http://global.mapit.mysociety.org/>`_ - global boundaries
              from the `OpenStreetMap <http://www.openstreetmap.org/>`_ project.
            * `MapIt UK <https://mapit.mysociety.org/>`_ - UK boundaries from various
              sources.
        
        The above are free for non-commercial, low-volume use. For details of
        what constitutes "low-volume", and for commercial licensing arrangements,
        please consult `MapIt pricing <https://mapit.mysociety.org/pricing/>`_ .
        
        Rate limiting
        -------------
        
        Usage is rate limited by default; clients may be rate limited by IP address
        or by a User Token passed in the User-Agent: header. Clients may be excluded
        from the effects of rate limiting via the RATE_LIMIT option in the
        configuration file.
