How to calculate the distance from your coordinates to the street what is in the answer (geopy)?

Question

Python

I use the code to get the address of the point:

from geopy.geocoders import Nominatim
from geopy.distance import vincenty
geolocator = Nominatim()
point1=(44.778374,10.341664)
loc = geolocator.reverse("44.778374,10.341664") #Координаты точки
point2 = (loc.raw['lat'], loc.raw['lon']) #Координаты точки ответа
print vincenty(point1, point2).meters #Получаем растояние

But the distance was calculated from my point to the middle of the street (which is in the answer).
How to calculate the minimum perpendicular distance to the street?

Answer 1

Let me put the question differently: how to calculate the distance to the nearest street from your coordinates?
Using the module "geopy" I get the name of the street (nearest), as well as the coordinates of the middle of this street

Answer 2

The distance from a point to a straight line is sought by a well-known formula.
