# R Interface to the Photon API 

Photon is an open source geocoder built for OpenStreetMap data and based on elasticsearch. 

This package allows to query a photon API and get the results in a data frame.

Photon web site: https://photon.komoot.io/    

Photon source code: https://github.com/komoot/photon

## Install Instructions

require(devtools)  

devtools::install_github(repo = 'rCarto/photon')  



## Usage

### `geocode()`

address <- c("19 rue Michel Bakounine, 29600 Morlaix, France",

             "5 rue Proudhon, 34130 Mauguio France",

             "2 Emma Goldmanweg, Tilburg, Netherlands",
