Class Method Summary collapse
-
.call_geocoder_service(url) ⇒ Object

-
.do_reverse_geocode(latlng) ⇒ Object
Not all geocoders can do reverse geocoding.
-
.geocode(address) ⇒ Object
Main method which calls the do_geocode template method which subclasses are responsible for implementing.
-

.do_reverse_geocode(latlng) ⇒ Object
Not all geocoders can do reverse geocoding. So, unless the subclass explicitly overrides this method, a call to reverse_geocode will return an empty GeoLoc. If you happen to be using MultiGeocoder, this will cause it to failover to the next geocoder, which will hopefully be one which supports reverse geocoding.

.geocode(address) ⇒ Object
Main method which calls the do_geocode template method which subclasses are responsible for implementing. Returns a populated GeoLoc or an empty one with a failed success code.
