No idea how OP did it, but libraries like astropy make it very easy: https://docs.astropy.org/en/stable/generated/examples/coordi...

#103Earlier quoted context omitted.
Is it French (midi)?
South in French is sud , while noon is indeed midi . However, the two words are the same in Latin ( meridies , lit. midday, as in p.m. = post meridiem , etc.), so probably in some of the other Romance languages they do match?
The south of France is known colloquially as "Le Midi".

#106I would gladly use "sit in the sun" version of this.
It shows the percentage of sunshine for both sides. Simply choose the other side than the one that is recommended for shade.

#107UI is confusing. As someone who is living in Pakistan, I do not know what to put on location fields.
What's your suggestion then? How do Pakistanis tell Google maps where they want to go from and to?
