Address Geocoding converts between street addresses and geographic coordinates in both directions. Type in a full or partial address and get back latitude and longitude — or give it GPS coordinates and get back the nearest street address.
It's useful anywhere location data needs to cross formats: mapping workflows, logistics planning, enriching datasets with coordinates, or interpreting GPS output from devices and APIs. The geocoder handles everything from precise street addresses to landmarks and city names, and returns importance scores so you can pick the best match when multiple results come back.
What you can do
- Convert any address (full, partial, or landmark) to latitude and longitude coordinates
- Reverse geocode GPS coordinates back to a structured street address
- Get structured address components including house number, road, city, postcode, and country
- Handle bulk lookups by calling geocode_address in sequence for each address
Who it's for
Developers and analysts enriching data with location coordinates. Anyone building mapping or logistics workflows who needs to move between human-readable addresses and machine-readable coordinates. Useful wherever you have one format and need the other.
How to use it
- Use geocode_address with any address string — the more specific, the more accurate the result
- Check the importance score (0–1) in the results to pick the best match when multiple locations are returned
- Use reverse_geocode when you have coordinates and need to display a human-readable address
Getting started
Both skills are ready to use immediately — no setup needed. Start with geocode_address and pass any address you have.
