Geocoding API는 장소를 주소, 위도 및 경도 좌표 또는 장소 ID로 허용하는 서비스입니다. 주소를 위도 및 경도 좌표와 장소 ID로 변환하거나 위도 및 경도 좌표 또는 장소 ID를 주소로 변환합니다.
Geocoding API를 사용하는 이유
Google Maps Platform API 중 하나에서 제공하는 지도 내에서 지오코딩 데이터를 사용하려면 웹사이트 또는 모바일 애플리케이션에 Geocoding API를 사용하세요.
Geocoding API를 사용하면 주소를 사용하여 지도에 마커를 배치하거나 지도의 마커를 주소로 변환할 수 있습니다. 이 서비스는 지도에 애플리케이션 콘텐츠를 배치하기 위해 사전 정의된 정적 주소를 지오코딩하도록 설계되었습니다.
Geocoding API로 할 수 있는 작업
Geocoding API를 사용하여 다음을 비롯한 하나 이상의 주소 또는 장소에 대한 지오코딩 데이터를 가져올 수 있습니다.
주소의 지리적 좌표입니다.
위도 및 경도 좌표 집합의 주소입니다.
장소 ID의 주소입니다.
결과가 표시되는 위치를 제어하고 특정 지역, 카운티 또는 우편번호로 결과를 제한할 수 있습니다.
Geocoding API 작동 방식
Geocoding API는 지오코딩과 역 지오코딩을 모두 실행합니다.
지오코딩: '1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA'와 같은 주소를 위도 및 경도 좌표 또는 장소 ID로 변환합니다. 이 좌표를 사용하여 지도에 마커를 배치하거나 뷰 프레임 내에서 지도의 중앙을 맞추거나 위치를 변경할 수 있습니다.
역 지오코딩: 위도/경도 좌표 또는 장소 ID를 사람이 읽을 수 있는 주소로 변환합니다. 배송 또는 수령을 비롯한 다양한 시나리오에 주소를 사용할 수 있습니다.
다음 데모에서는 Maps JavaScript API를 통해 지오코딩 서비스를 사용하여 Geocoding API의 작동 방식을 보여줍니다. 별도의 탭에서 지도를 열어 더 많은 옵션과 세부정보를 확인하세요.

Functionality varies by region. [Learn more](/maps/comms/eea/faq). \n\nThe Geocoding API is a service that accepts a place as an\naddress, latitude and longitude coordinates, or Place ID. It converts the\naddress into latitude and longitude coordinates and a Place ID, or converts\nlatitude and longitude coordinates or a Place ID into an address.\n| **Note** : If you only want plus codes and don't want to use an API key, you can use the [Plus codes API](https://github.com/google/open-location-code/tree/main/Documentation).\n\nWhy use the Geocoding API\n\nUse the Geocoding API for website or mobile application when you want to use\ngeocoding data within maps provided by one of the Google Maps Platform APIs.\nWith the Geocoding API, you use addresses to place markers on a map, or\nconvert a marker on a map to an address. This service is designed for geocoding\n**predefined, static addresses** for placement of application\ncontent on a map.\n| This service is **not** designed to respond directly to user\n| input. To do dynamic geocoding, for example, in a user interface, see the\n| [Maps JavaScript API\n| client geocoder](/maps/documentation/javascript/geocoding) and/or the\n| [Google Play services Location APIs](https://developer.android.com/google/play-services/location.html).\n\nWhat you can do with the Geocoding API\n\nYou can use the Geocoding API to obtain geocoding data for one or more addresses or\nplaces, including the following:\n\n- Geographic coordinates for addresses.\n- Addresses for sets of latitude and longitude coordinates.\n- Addresses for place IDs.\n\nYou can control where the results appear and constrain the results to a particular region,\ncounty, or postal code.\n\nHow the Geocoding API works\n\nThe Geocoding API does both geocoding and reverse geocoding:\n\n- [**Geocoding**](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding): Converts addresses such as \"1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA\" into latitude and longitude coordinates or Place IDs. You can use these coordinates to place markers on a map, or to center or reposition the map within the view frame.\n- [**Reverse geocoding**](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-reverse-geocoding): Converts latitude/longitude coordinates or a Place ID into a human-readable address. You can use addresses for a variety of scenarios, including deliveries or pickups.\n\nThe following demo uses the Geocoding Service through the Maps JavaScript API\nto demonstrate how the Geocoding API works. Open the map in a separate tab\nto see more options and details.\n\nResources\n\nThe following table summarizes the resources available through the\nGeocoding API along with the data each endpoint returns.\n\n| Data resources | Data returned | Return format |\n|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|---------------|\n| [Geocoding](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding) | Returns address, address components, and address types. See [Results](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding#results) in the *Geocoding request and response* guide. | - JSON - XML |\n| [Reverse geocoding](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-reverse-geocoding) | Returns address, address components, and address types.

You'll need to supply the correct lookup parameters for address or component lookups. See [Geocoding parameters](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding#geocoding-lookup) for details. |\n| 3 | **Try a reverse geocoding request** | Supply latitude/longitude coordinates along with your API key to obtain address components for the closest human-readable address for that location. See [Reverse geocoding requests](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-reverse-geocoding#reverse-requests) for details. |\n| 4 | **Understand response basics** | All endpoints in the Geocoding API return the same data in either JSON or XML. See [Geocoding responses](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding#GeocodingResponses) for an explanation of the data, status codes, and error messages. |\n| 5 | **Incorporate geocoding data into your own app!** | You can use geocoding data to obtain addresses from map markers or to supply markers on a map based on a known address. |\n\nAvailable client libraries\n\nCall this API in the language of\nyour choice through one of the following client libraries:\n\n- [Java\n Client for Google Maps Services](https://github.com/googlemaps/google-maps-services-java)\n- [Python\n Client for Google Maps Services](https://github.com/googlemaps/google-maps-services-python)\n- [Go Client\n for Google Maps Services](https://github.com/googlemaps/google-maps-services-go)\n- [Node.js\n Client for Google Maps Services](https://github.com/googlemaps/google-maps-services-js)\n\nThe Java Client, Python Client, Go Client and Node.js Client for Google Maps\nServices are community-supported client libraries, open sourced under the\n[Apache 2.0 License](http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0).\nDownload them from GitHub, where you can also find installation instructions and sample code.\n\nWhat's next\n\n- **Start using the Geocoding API** : Go to [Set up your\n Google Cloud project](/maps/documentation/geocoding/cloud-setup).\n- **Get started with sample requests and responses** : Go to [Geocoding requests and responses](/maps/documentation/geocoding/requests-geocoding)\n- **Follow best practices** : Go to [Geocoding Addresses Best\n Practices](/maps/documentation/geocoding/best-practices)."]]
