TomTom Geocoding and Reverse Geocoding APIs are map services at the core of every location based enterprise and navigation application. That is why automotive and bit tech companies like Microsoft are using our APIs.
The Reverse Geocoding API gives users a tool to translate a coordinate into a human-understandable address, additionally providing detailed information of the selected street, or geography.
The Geocoding API is a powerful tool that converts addresses, such as "109 Park Row, New York, United States," into geographic coordinates (e.g., "lat": 40.71226, "lon": -74.00207).
Our team fully owns the product which includes building features, deploying and maintaining cloud infrastructure, measuring quality, ensuring security and data privacy. You can shape all aspects of it, from the API design to implementation details.
Core technologies of our tech stack are Java, Microsoft Azure, AKS 🚀
Other important technologies and tools are Elasticsearch, JavaScript, Python, Groovy, Jenkins, Github actions, Postgres SQL, PostGIS, MongoDB, Apache Lucene, Docker, Terraform and shell scripts
