Geocoding API: Extract Rich Geographic Information

about 1 year ago by Wafaa Kahoui

We're happy to introduce our new Geocoding API that allows users to extract rich geographic information from any text location or address.

😍 Why it’s a big deal for HrFlow.ai users?

This update introduces several new features for our users:

  • Intelligent extraction of geographic data from text input
  • Support for geopoints, locations, cities, countries, and GeoJSON output
  • Global coverage accepting queries from anywhere in the world
  • Fast and scalable for use in real-time applications
  • Batch processing of multiple inputs for efficient data retrieval

🔧 How does it work?

Below is an example of the GeoJson result containing all relevant geographic information extracted from the location text, especially:

  • Geographic fields: city, city_distric, country, country_region, etc.
  • Google maps coordinates: gmaps link, latitude lat, and longitude lng
