Frequently Asked Questions
What formats does the Geocoder API accept?
The API accepts addresses as plain text strings in any format. It handles international addresses, partial addresses, and various formatting styles. For best results, include as much detail as possible (street, city, state, country).
How accurate is the geocoding?
Accuracy varies by location and address quality. Each response includes a confidence score (0.0-1.0) indicating match reliability. Urban areas typically achieve 95%+ accuracy for well-formatted addresses.
What is the batch processing limit?
A single batch request can process up to 5,000 addresses. For larger datasets, you can make multiple batch requests in parallel or contact us for enterprise throughput options.
Does the API support reverse geocoding?
Yes. The /api/v1/reverse-geocode/ endpoint converts coordinates (latitude, longitude) to human-readable addresses, returning street address, city, state, country, and postal code components.
How do I authenticate API requests?
All requests require a Bearer token in the Authorization header. Sign up at tools.continuuiti.com to generate your API key, then include it as: Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY
What regions are supported?
The Geocoder API provides global coverage across 200+ countries. Coverage quality is highest in North America, Europe, and major metropolitan areas worldwide.
