api-ninjas-com Geocoding API is one of 141 APIs that [api-ninjas-com](https://apis.io/providers/api-ninjas-com/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. This API exposes 6 JSON Schema definitions. Tagged areas include Geocoding. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an API reference, and 6 JSON Schemas.

The Geocoding API converts between place names and coordinates in both directions: /geocoding turns a city, state, or US ZIP code into latitude and longitude, and /reversegeocoding turns coordinates back into the nearest city, state, and country. Both resolve place names, not street addresses. Results are enriched well beyond the coordinate pair: every lookup also returns the administrative hierarchy with ISO 3166-2 codes, IANA timezone, population, elevation, country context (currency, calling code, languages, EU/EEA membership) and alternative coordinate formats such as Plus Codes and geohash. Premium subscribers additionally receive climate zone, degree of urbanisation, land/water status and the nearest airport.
