Exemplify Your Business Outcomes Based On Location Intelligence
With millions of postal codes and geographical coordinates around the globe, it makes it difficult to streamline the process of location and navigation management. Ambee’s latest geocoding and reverse geocoding APIs help you make the best business decisions by simplifying the process of working with geographic names and coordinates.
Geocoding API: This API enables you to input a specific location name, such as a city, area, or postal code, and receive its corresponding accurate geographical coordinates in return. This is especially useful for users who prefer to work with recognizable location names rather than numerical coordinates.
Reverse Geocoding API: With reverse geocoding, you can input geographical coordinates, such as latitude and longitude, and obtain the names of nearby locations. This is particularly valuable for applications where you have coordinates but need to understand the corresponding places.
Global Coverage
Whether your data requirement is from New York City or Tokyo, our API provides extensive global coverage, ensuring that your geocoding & reverse geocoding needs are met.
Lightning-Fast Conversion
Our APIs are optimized for speed, ensuring you get real-time results without any lag. Instantly translate coordinates into detailed addresses or vice versa and help provide valuable context to your users.
Easy Integration
Developer-friendly APIs that are easily integrated into any program, platform, or product.
Scalable Infrastructure
Whether you have a handful of requests or thousands per second, our API is designed to handle your scalability needs with ease.
