Azure Maps geocoding coverage
The Search service supports geocoding, which means that your API request can have search terms, like an address or the name of a place, and returns the result as latitude and longitude coordinates. For example, [Get Search Address] receives queries that contain location information, and returns results as latitude and longitude coordinates.
However, the Search service doesn't have the same level of information and accuracy for all countries/regions. Use this article to determine what kind of locations you can reliably search for in each region.
The ability to geocode in a country/region is dependent upon the road data coverage and geocoding precision of the geocoding service. The following categorizations are used to specify the level of geocoding support in each country/region.
- Address points - Address data can be resolved to latitude/longitude coordinates within the address parcel (property boundary). Address points are often referred to as being 'Rooftop' accurate, which is the highest level of accuracy available for addresses.
- House numbers - Addresses are interpolated to a latitude/longitude coordinate on the street.
- Street level - Addresses are resolved to the latitude/longitude coordinate of the street that contains the address. The house number may not be processed.
- City level - City place names are supported.
