Geocode Address
Geocode an address, partial address or just the name of a place.
Address
geocoding is the process of taking a string and attempting to match this with possible real world locations.
This is the opposite of
reverse geocoding.
Once a location is found you can then retrieve the geographic coordinates as latitude and longitude.
You can also use this API to verify postal addresses, find postal codes or get a neatly formatted address suitable for shipping/mail.
If more than one location is found for a given string then location results are ordered by most relevant to the original search address and with the highest geographic accuracy.
If your address data is already split into its individual components (street, city, suburb etc.) we recommend you pass this as a comma separated string to the address parameter.
