This detailed and clearly broken down tutorial will be beneficial to any developer, no matter their level of experience, or the amount of experience they’d like to gain in topographical geocoding related to online mapped data.
This course therefore introduces the use of geo-coding in the area of application called Leaflet; an open source library for interactive maps. Geocoding is a feature which allows the user to type in an address, a place name or co-ordinates and get to the specific places in the mapping service. By using this feature the visitor experience and utility in any web apps is improved with the help of Leaflet.
First, we set up a very basic map to introduce you to Leaflet to advance the basics and lay down the groundwork. If you plan on developing a fully functional travel application, real estate service website or a business that is based on the geographical location, then you need to understand the core of Leaflet.
It is only when we get to this section of the tutorial that the tutorial gets down to business, which is geocoding. Additionally, you will be learning on how you can integrate the geocoding services into your maps in order to allow users to search for place names or addresses in your maps. We discuss a few geocoding services and API over the features that we like, what we didn’t like about them, and how we can use geocoding services and APIs in our projects.
