This page describes how to add bubbles to your folium map. It is done using the folium.Circle function. Each bubble has a size related to a specific value. Note that if you zoom on the map, the circle will get bigger. If you want the circle to stay the same size whatever the zoom, you have to use the folium.CircleMarker (exactly the same arguments!).
# import the library
import folium
import pandas as pd
# Make a data frame with dots to show on the map
data = pd.DataFrame({
'lat':[-58, 2, 145, 30.32, -4.03, -73.57, 36.82, -38.5],
'lon':[-34, 49, -38, 59.93, 5.33, 45.52, -1.29, -12.97],
'name':['Buenos Aires', 'Paris', 'melbourne', 'St Petersbourg', 'Abidjan', 'Montreal', 'Nairobi', 'Salvador'],
'value':[10,12,40,70,23,43,100,43]
})
data
# Make an empty map
m = folium.Map(location=[20,0], tiles="Mapbox Bright", zoom_start=2)
# I can add marker one by one on the map
for i in range(0,len(data)):
folium.Circle(
location=[data.iloc[i]['lon'], data.iloc[i]['lat']],
popup=data.iloc[i]['name'],
radius=data.iloc[i]['value']*10000,
color='crimson',
fill=True,
fill_color='crimson'
).add_to(m)
# Save it as html
m.save('mymap.html')
The variable radius doesn’t work for some reason. If I set a fixed integer value (i.e. radius=10) it works fine. But I can’t seem to get the radius to change according to the ‘value’ field using iloc.
When I try it as it is, I get the following error: TypeError: 100000 is not JSON serializable.
Can you help please?
Very nice tutorial. Works perfectly.
However, how do I how to I change the popup content to display integers? I think it only takes strings. For example, I want to display only ‘Values’. How should I do that?
Thanks
Okay, I got it. I used astype.(str)
Nice work!
It seems you have mixed up latitude and longitude twice in the code (such that it’s displayed correctly in the map).
Cheers 😀
How do I get rid of the legends (smiley face, thumbs up, etc)?
this does not work, throws an error on “add marker” loop

Hi All,
i encountured same error, the thing is you need convert int to float
data[‘value’]=data.value.astype(float)
Your code doesn’t work.
Type caste the value:
data[‘value’]=data.value.astype(float)
good code! works very well!
