Reverse Search API

In Reverse Search API,  we provide the reverse geocoding APIs to convert coordinates to human-readable addresses.

How does it work?

The Reverse Search API works in reverse: it converts coordinates to human-readable addresses.

For example, the latitude/longitude value for a location in Brooklyn: “40.714224,-73.961452” can be converted to an address “277 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211, USA” using this API.
