The information in Geocoding is provided by the main providers, such as Google and OpenStreetMap.

The system proposes the best result by progressively searching 3 databases: first HERE, then Google Maps and finally Open Street Maps.

The Geocoding API proposes the best result because it searches progressively on 3 databases:

  • HERE
  • Google Maps
  • Open Street Maps

The information provided is therefore very accurate and provided by the best providers.

For the data they offer, Geocoding and Geocoding Reverse are widely used in applications such as interactive maps, delivery services and travel bookings, where addresses or geographic locations need to be converted into coordinates (and vice versa) in order to calculate routes and provide precise information to users.
