    - `coordinates: Union[List[float], List[List[float]], List[List[List[float]]], List[List[List[List[float]]]]]`

      GeoJSON coordinates array (nesting depth varies by geometry type)

      - `List[float]`

      - `List[List[float]]`

      - `List[List[List[float]]]`

      - `List[List[List[List[float]]]]`

    - `type: Literal["Point", "LineString", "Polygon", 3 more]`

      - `"Point"`

      - `"LineString"`

      - `"Polygon"`

      - `"MultiPoint"`

      - `"MultiLineString"`

      - `"MultiPolygon"`

  - `properties: Properties`

    - `distance_m: Optional[float]`

      Distance to nearest road in meters

    - `edge_id: Optional[int]`

      Road edge ID

  - `type: Literal["Feature"]`

    - `"Feature"`

### Example

```python
import os
from plaza import Plaza

client = Plaza(
    api_key=os.environ.get("PLAZA_API_KEY"),  # This is the default and can be omitted
)
nearest_result = client.routing.nearest(
    lat=0,
    lng=0,
)
print(nearest_result.geometry)
```
