Remarks
A class for handling geocoding and reverse geocoding. Geocoding is the process of transforming a street address or other description of a location into a (latitude, longitude) coordinate. Reverse geocoding is the process of transforming a (latitude, longitude) coordinate into a (partial) address. The amount of detail in a reverse geocoded location description may vary, for example one might contain the full street address of the closest building, while another might contain only a city name and postal code.
The Geocoder class requires a backend service that is not included in the core android framework. The Geocoder query methods will return an empty list if there no backend service in the platform. Use the isPresent() method to determine whether a Geocoder implementation exists.
<p class="note"><strong>Warning:</strong> Geocoding services may provide no guarantees on availability or accuracy. Results are a best guess, and are not guaranteed to be meaningful or correct. Do not use this API for any safety-critical or regulatory compliance purpose.
