NAME

Geo::Coder::Free::Local - Provides an interface to locations that you know yourself. I have found locations by using GPS apps on a smartphone and by inspecting GeoTagged photographs using https://github.com/nigelhorne/NJH-Snippets/blob/master/bin/geotag or by using the app GPSCF.

VERSION

Version 0.34

SYNOPSIS

use Geo::Coder::Free::Local;

my $geocoder = Geo::Coder::Free::Local->new();
my $location = $geocoder->geocode(location => 'Ramsgate, Kent, UK');

DESCRIPTION

Geo::Coder::Free::Local provides an interface to your own location data.

$geocoder = Geo::Coder::Free::Local->new();

geocode

$location = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location);

print 'Longitude: ', $location->long(), "\n";

# TODO:
# @locations = $geocoder->geocode('Portland, USA');
# diag 'There are Portlands in ', join (', ', map { $_->{'state'} } @locations);

$location = $geocoder->reverse_geocode(latlng => '37.778907,-122.39732');
