Introduction🔗
Reverse geocoding turns GPS coordinates into real places. Give us a latitude and longitude, and we'll tell you the country, city, street address, or other location details.
Quick Start Guide - Get running in minutes.
How it works🔗
Provide coordinates to receive location details such as:
- Country and region - Identify the country and region associated with the supplied coordinates
- Cities and neighborhoods - Get local context for personalization
- Street addresses - Turn coordinates into human-readable locations
- Points of interest - Identify nearby landmarks and businesses
Cloud Service🔗
Reverse geocoding runs as a Cloud Service, so there's no local setup needed. We use high-quality location data from OpenStreetMap through our Nominatim-based solution.
