Address geocoding: History, Applications & Art

Address geocoding, or simply geocoding, is the process of taking a text-based description of a location, such as an address or the name of a place, and returning geographic coordinates (typically the latitude/longitude pair) to identify a location on the Earth's surface. Reverse geocoding on the other hand converts geographic coordinates to the…
