# Geocod.io Reverse Geocoding API Demo

This is a reverse geocoding demo that uses your current location to provide you with a JSON output of information about your current position. Powered by [Geocod.io](https://Geocod.io).



    



### [Try the Demo](https://geo-demo.chandlermayo.com)

## What and Why?

Good location data can make a huge impact on the quality of your application's user experiance. The problem is a good source of location data is hard to find and users often provide incomplete and missing data.

Using Geocod.io to make a reverse geocoding request we can resolve more location infomation from a limited amount of data.

This lets you correct incomplete infomation and ensure you have a correct and valid address. 

With complete location information you can do things like:

- Ensure that physical mailings reach your users.

- Reduce returned packages and missed deliveries.

- Improve QoS on food delivery services. 

- Ensure legal compliances.

## How does this demo work?

First the user is asked for permission to get their current location.



    



Then a request is made to the Geocod.io Reverse Geocoding API with the users position:

```

https://api.geocod.io/v1.4/reverse?q=X,Y&api_key=YOUR_API_KEY

```

Results of the request are displayed under the page instructions.
