Field Detail

addressComponents

public AddressComponent[] addressComponents

The separate address components in this result.

formattedAddress

public java.lang.String formattedAddress

The human-readable address of this location.

Often this address is equivalent to the "postal address," which sometimes differs from country to country. (Note that some countries, such as the United Kingdom, do not allow distribution of true postal addresses due to licensing restrictions.) This address is generally composed of one or more address components. For example, the address "111 8th Avenue, New York, NY" contains separate address components for "111" (the street number, "8th Avenue" (the route), "New York" (the city) and "NY" (the US state). These address components contain additional information.

postcodeLocalities

public java.lang.String[] postcodeLocalities

All the localities contained in a postal code. This is only present when the result is a postal code that contains multiple localities.

geometry

public Geometry geometry

Location information for this result.

types

public AddressType[] types

The types of the returned result. This array contains a set of zero or more tags identifying the type of feature returned in the result. For example, a geocode of "Chicago" returns "locality" which indicates that "Chicago" is a city, and also returns "political" which indicates it is a political entity.

partialMatch

public boolean partialMatch

Indicates that the geocoder did not return an exact match for the original request, though it was able to match part of the requested address. You may wish to examine the original request for misspellings and/or an incomplete address.

Partial matches most often occur for street addresses that do not exist within the locality you pass in the request. Partial matches may also be returned when a request matches two or more locations in the same locality. For example, "21 Henr St, Bristol, UK" will return a partial match for both Henry Street and Henrietta Street. Note that if a request includes a misspelled address component, the geocoding service may suggest an alternate address. Suggestions triggered in this way will not be marked as a partial match.

placeId

public java.lang.String placeId

A unique identifier for this place.
