Hello @tadast , and thanks for putting this up.

I forked and added duplicate lines for complete https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1 text label coverage in addition to to the short names you used.

Please consider this a pull request 😄

Thanks a lot.

Comparing with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_3166_country_codes

In this list I don't see: ÅLAND ISLANDS (AX), INDIA (IN), CURAZAO (CW), SINT MAARTEN (SX), BONAIRE, SINT EUSTATIUS, SABA (BQ), SAINT BARTHÉLEMY (BL), THE COLLECTIVITY OF SAINT-MARTIN (MF).

Some coordinates randomly inside each one are:

AX 60.2, 19.9
IN 17, 77
CW 12.2, -69
SX 18.05, -63.05
BQ 12.2, -68.3
BL 17.9, -62.85
MF 18.1, -63.05

For those who, like me, has got problem with quoted numbers, spaces and duplicates with Pandas:

coord = pd.read_csv('https://gist.githubusercontent.com/tadast/8827699/raw/f5cac3d42d16b78348610fc4ec301e9234f82821/countries_codes_and_coordinates.csv', doublequote=False)
for c in coord.columns:
    coord[c] = coord[c].str.replace('"', "").str.strip()

for c in ['Longitude (average)', 'Latitude (average)']:
    coord[c] = coord[c].astype(float)

coord = coord.drop_duplicates(subset=['Alpha-3 code'], keep='first')

Longitude and Latitude are now floating, it removes double quotes and strip strings, and it also removes duplicates by keeping the first one. The new dataframe has length 244 instead of 256.

Removed duplicates, and floating point values, striped string... Usable with Pandas:

Very very handy indeed. In addition to the suggestions made by @vtamara I found another one missing:

XK Kosovo 42.5773 20.8905

Not sure whether it's ISO since Kosovo being a state is disputed. Anyway I encountered it in a large dataset. Provided coordinates are as given on wikipedia.

What is the ISO Code for Kosovo? I cannot find in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_3166_country_codes

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/.xk

It's a temporary code due to the status of Kosovo being disputed.

There's a lot more of unassigned and user assigned / temporary codes to be found at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2
