Geocode with Confidence Branch

Forward geocode then branch on confidence to enrich a strong match or re-verify a weak one.

  1. Forward geocode the supplied address and capture the best match's coordinates, confidence, and label.
  2. Re-run forward geocoding for the confident match with the country and timezone modules enabled to build a richer place profile.
  3. Reverse geocode the coordinates from the weak forward match to confirm the address positionstack actually resolved to those coordinates.
What you'll need to have ready
  • accessKey: Your positionstack API access key.
  • query: The address, place name, or location string to geocode.
  • confidenceThreshold: Minimum confidence (0.0-1.0) for a match to be treated as high confidence.
