class telegram.Location(longitude, latitude, horizontal_accuracy=None, live_period=None, heading=None, proximity_alert_radius=None, *, api_kwargs=None)[source]

Bases: telegram.TelegramObject

This object represents a point on the map.

Objects of this class are comparable in terms of equality. Two objects of this class are considered equal, if their longitude and latitude are equal.

Parameters:
  • longitude (float) – Longitude as defined by the sender.

  • latitude (float) – Latitude as defined by the sender.

  • horizontal_accuracy (float, optional) – The radius of uncertainty for the location, measured in meters; 0-1500.

  • live_period (int, optional) – Time relative to the message sending date, during which the location can be updated, in seconds. For active live locations only.

  • heading (int, optional) – The direction in which user is moving, in degrees; 1-360. For active live locations only.

  • proximity_alert_radius (int, optional) – Maximum distance for proximity alerts about approaching another chat member, in meters. For sent live locations only.
