OpenCage Geocoder provides a simple API for forward and reverse geocoding using open data sources.
Tools
Forward Geocode Address
Tool to convert a human-readable address into geographic coordinates. Use when you need to retrieve latitude and longitude from an address.
Geocode To Geojson
Geocode addresses or coordinates and return results in GeoJSON FeatureCollection format. Use this tool when you need: - Geographic data in standard GeoJSON format for mapping applications - Forward geocoding: convert addresses to coordinates - Reverse geocoding: convert coordinates to addresses The response includes coordinates, formatted addresses, and optional annotations like timezone, currency, and sun times for each location.
Geocode With Jsonp
Geocode an address and return results wrapped in a JavaScript callback function (JSONP format). Use this tool when you need geocoding results that can be directly consumed by JavaScript through a callback function, typically for cross-domain AJAX requests in browser environments. The response wraps standard geocoding JSON with your specified callback function name. Example response: myCallback({"results":[{"geometry":{"lat":52.5,"lng":13.4},"formatted":"Berlin, Germany",...}],...})
Geocode Google V3 Json
Tool to perform forward geocoding and return results in Google Geocoding API v3 compatible JSON format. Use when you need Google v3 compatible output for legacy integrations. Note: This is a legacy format that may be discontinued; using the standard JSON format is recommended.
Reverse Geocode Coordinates
Tool to convert coordinates to a human-readable address. Use when you have latitude and longitude and need a readable location.
Geocode Xml
Geocode a location query and return results in XML format. Supports both forward geocoding (address to coordinates) and reverse geocoding (coordinates to address). Use this when you need XML-formatted output instead of JSON.
