Geocoding
Getting Started
Geocoding is the process of finding locations that match a user’s search query or interest on the map.
With the Gebeta Maps Geocoding API, you can retrieve information about places like restaurants, hotels, parks, or museums. Each place includes ratings, reviews, photos, contact information, and more. Additionally, you can access detailed information such as distance, directions, and place availability.
Types of Geocoding
Forward Geocoding
Convert addresses or place names into precise coordinates.
Reverse Geocoding
Convert latitude and longitude coordinates into physical addresses.
API Limits and Restrictions
The Geocoding API has a rate limit of 50 requests per second per API token. Exceeding this limit will result in an error and rejected requests. To manage this, consider:
- Throttling your requests.
- Using multiple tokens for different applications or users.
