Informations about the package geocoder

Dlin Geocoder PHP Lib

1. Overview

This is a PHP Geocoding lib using Google Map API and/or Microsoft Bing Map API.

The goal is to make geocoding easy with Google Map API and/or Bing Map API. The library provides two methods, forward and reverse, for Forward Geocoding and Revesre Geocoding

Forward Geocoding is the process of taking a given location in address format and returning the closes known coordinates to the address provided. The address can be a country, county, city state, zip code, street address, or any combination of these.

Reverse Geocoding is the opposite of Forward Geocoding. It takes the provided coordinates (latitude and longitude) and provides you the closest known location to that point in address format.

This lib accepts multiple Google accounts and/or Bing accounts configuration to avoid problems caused by excessive API usage. If called multiple times, accounts are rotated and used in turns. Accounts also back each other up. If one account fails, other accounts will be used as backup to complete the task.
