How does reverse geocoding work?

Reverse geocoding is the process of converting a location as described by geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude) to a human-readable address or place name. Reverse geocoding permits the identification of nearby street addresses, places, and/or areal subdivisions such as neighbourhoods, county, state, or country.

What is geocoding and why is it important for visualizing spatial relationships?

Location enables us to visualize, question, analyze, and interpret data. It’s how we are able to understand patterns, relationships, and trends. Through a process called geocoding, GIS shows you where on Earth something is located. Geocoding will output those locations as geographic features on a map.

How are geocode services and locators work together?

Geocoding allows you to find and display addresses on a map and see how they relate to surrounding features. Sometimes you can see relationships by reviewing the map; other times, you can use spatial analysis tools to reveal information that can’t be easily seen. The work of geocoding is done by a service called a locator.

How does a geocoding service work in JavaScript?

The Geocoding service requires a callback method to execute upon retrieval of the geocoder’s results. This callback should pass two parameters to hold the results and a status code, in that order. The GeocoderResult object represents a single geocoding result.
