geocode-glib is a convenience library for the geocoding (finding longitude,
|
|
and latitude from an address) and reverse geocoding (finding an address from
|
|
coordinates). It uses Nominatim service to achieve that. It also caches
|
|
(reverse-)geocoding requests for faster results and to avoid unnecessary server
|
|
load.
