Batch geocode multiple addresses

ParametersExpand Collapse
GeocodeBatchParams params
List<String> addresses
ReturnsExpand Collapse
class GeocodeBatchResponse:

Batch geocoding result. Each entry in results is a FeatureCollection corresponding to the input address at the same index. Order is preserved.

long count

Number of addresses processed (always equals length of results)

List<GeocodeResult> results

Array of FeatureCollections, one per input address. Empty FeatureCollections indicate no match.

List<GeocodingFeature> features

Geocoding results ordered by relevance score

GeoJSON Geometry object per RFC 7946. Coordinates use [longitude, latitude] order. 3D coordinates [lng, lat, elevation] are used for elevation endpoints.

Coordinates coordinates

Coordinates array. Nesting depth varies by geometry type: Point = [lng, lat], LineString = [[lng, lat], ...], Polygon = [[[lng, lat], ...], ...], etc.

One of the following:
List<double>
List<List<double>>
List<List<List<double>>>
List<List<List<List<double>>>>
Type type

Geometry type

One of the following:
POINT("Point")
LINE_STRING("LineString")
POLYGON("Polygon")
MULTI_POINT("MultiPoint")
MULTI_LINE_STRING("MultiLineString")
MULTI_POLYGON("MultiPolygon")
Properties properties

Geocoding result properties

String displayName

Formatted address or place name

Optional<String> category

POI category (e.g. restaurant, cafe, park). Present for place results.

Optional<String> city

City or town name. Present for address results.

Optional<Double> confidence

Interpolation confidence (0-1). Present only for interpolated results.

maximum1
minimum0
Optional<String> country

Country name. Present for reverse geocode address results.

Optional<String> countryCode

ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code

maxLength2
minLength2
Optional<Double> distanceM

Distance from the query point in meters (reverse geocode / nearby only)

Optional<String> fullAddress

Complete formatted address from the database. Present for reverse geocode address results.

Optional<String> houseNumber

House or building number. Present for address and interpolated results.

Optional<Boolean> interpolated

Whether this result was estimated by address interpolation rather than an exact database match.

Optional<String> name

Place name (raw). Present for reverse geocode place results.

Optional<Long> osmId

Optional<OsmType> osmType

OSM element type (node, way, relation)

One of the following:
NODE("node")
WAY("way")
RELATION("relation")
Optional<String> postcode

Postal code. Present for reverse geocode address results.

Optional<Double> score

Relevance score (higher is better). Incorporates text match quality, spatial proximity boost, and popularity signals. Not bounded to 0-1.

minimum0
Optional<Source> source

Result source indicating how the result was found: structured (exact field match), bm25 (full-text search), fuzzy (trigram similarity), address (reverse geocode address), place (reverse geocode POI), interpolation (estimated from neighboring addresses)

One of the following:
STRUCTURED("structured")
BM25("bm25")
FUZZY("fuzzy")
ADDRESS("address")
PLACE("place")
INTERPOLATION("interpolation")
Optional<String> state

State or province name. Present for reverse geocode address results.

Optional<String> street

Street name. Present for address and interpolated results.
