Module: Kaupert::Geocoders

Defined in:

lib/kaupert/geocoding.rb

Overview

Contains a range of geocoders:

"regular" address geocoders

• Yahoo Geocoder - requires an API key.

address geocoders that also provide reverse geocoding

• Google Geocoder - requires an API key.

IP address geocoders

• IP Geocoder - geocodes an IP address using hostip.info's web service.
• Geoplugin.net -- another IP address geocoder

The Multigeocoder

• Multi Geocoder - provides failover for the physical location geocoders.

Some of these geocoders require configuration. You don't have to provide it here. See the README.
