SYNOPSIS

use Geo::Coder::Navteq;

my $geocoder = Geo::Coder::Navteq->new(

DESCRIPTION

The Geo::Coder::Navteq module provides an interface to the geocoding functionality of the Navteq MapTP AJAX API.

METHODS

new

$geocoder = Geo::Coder::Navteq->new(
    'Your MapTP AJAX API application key'
)
$geocoder = Geo::Coder::Navteq->new(
    key   => 'Your MapTP AJAX API application key',
    debug => 1,
)

Creates a new geocoding object.

An application key can be obtained here: http://www.nn4d.com/site/global/build/web_apis/ajax_api_20/free_ajax_key/ajax_free_register.jsp

Accepts an optional ua parameter for passing in a custom LWP::UserAgent object.

geocode

$location = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location)
@locations = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location)

In scalar context, this method returns the first location result; and in list context it returns all location results.

Each location result is a hashref; a typical example looks like:

{
    Coordinate => {
        Elevation => "0.0",
        Latitude  => "41.88447265625",
        Longitude => "-87.6388753255208"
    },
    Hierarchy       => 6,
    PropertiesMajor => {
        City   => "Chicago",
        Ctry   => "US",
        Cty    => "Cook",
        Sta    => "IL",
        Street => "425 W Randolph St",
        Zip    => 60606,
    },
    PropertiesMinor => {
        Distance => "0.0",
        ID       => 0,
        Lang     => "ENG",

        Size     => 1,
        Type     => 6,
        Variance => "0.0029503035",
        X0       => "-87.6398",
        X1       => "-87.6339",
        Y0       => "41.8844966666667",
        Y1       => "41.8844",

    },
    Quality    => "Exact",
    Similarity => "1.0",
}
