Geocoding and search
Set up automatic geocoding and easy search by address, coordinates, and other parameters
Geocoder
Geocoder is an API for the automatic translation of coordinates into addresses and vice versa. The geocoder can be accessed via HTTPS and JavaScript API.
Overview
Show a location on the map by specifying its address or coordinates. Display a location’s address or coordinates when you click on the map.
Benefits for your business
Simplify the calculation of delivery costs by defining zones or city districts by address. Enhance and structure address information. Show stores, warehouses, offices, and their addresses on the map.
How the Geocoder API works
If you enter the following query: «Al Quoz Industrial Area 1, Hadaeq Mohammed Bin Rashid, Emirate of Dubai,» the geocoder will display its coordinates as [25.141520, 55.226136]. If you enter its coordinates [25.141520, 55.226136], into it, it will return the address: «Al Quoz Industrial Area 1, Hadaeq Mohammed Bin Rashid, Emirate of Dubai.»
Use cases
Geocoder helps online stores, real estate directories, retailers, and logistics services quickly translate large address volumes into coordinates and vice versa.
Organization Search
This API helps you find and filter organizations and points of interest by parameter — name, address, phone number, or type of service. It also helps you retrieve detailed information about the locations.
Overview
Search organizations by their type of activity, phone number, location, and other parameters. Search for geographic locations.
Benefits for your business
Build cold leads for your customer search. Gather information on where competitors’ facilities or other important business locations are based. Select good locations for stores, cafes, ATMs, service stations, and more.
How the Organization Search API works
Your server will return a JSON formatted list of up to 500 locations arranged in order of priority as a response to an HTTP request. Use JavaScript API or Static API to display the locations on the map.
Use cases
Organization search displays locations in a given area. For example, all the bank branches or ATMs in a certain part of a city.
Geosuggest
An API for quickly entering and verifying organization names and addresses. Integrate it into your site, app, or CRM to simplify filling out forms and typing out addresses.
Overview
Make it easier for customers and employees to type out addresses by providing autofill options and hints to assist them. Minimize mistakes made when entering city, street, and organization names. Customize how your hints are formatted to focus specifically on the address components you need. Use it together with the JavaScript API and MapKit SDK to enable searching for addresses on the map.
Benefits for your business
Increase the number of users who complete orders for your products and services — fast address entry means customers are more likely to finish the order process instead of getting stuck halfway.. Avoid misdeliveries — with correct and precise addresses, couriers will know exactly where to go. Simplify entry for orders and forms that include addresses — this makes it easier for customers to enter them even on smaller screens. Streamline the work of your support service workers — with fewer mistakes entering addresses for orders, users are less likely to reach out to them for help.
How Geosuggest works
As users enter the first few letters of an address, the API returns the most relevant one. You can preset the location of the user or the area of the map they're working with so Geosuggest can narrow down the list of possible addresses.
Use cases
Geosuggest saves the users' time spent entering addresses on websites and in apps. This includes entering addresses for purchases, deliveries, or documents for banks, visa centers, and governmental organizations. Additionally, it streamlines the work of call center employees and logistics managers by minimizing address entry errors during customer interactions.
