Hi Makers and Hunters! π BigDataCloud is an Australian based Tech Startup and I am excited to announce our latest feature update to our most popular free client-side reverse geocoding API. More and more websites and mobile apps, today, are requesting to access user's location data with HTML5 geolocation API or the default location services of iOS/Android. However, the opt-in rate for the sharing of location data is quite low and businesses have to rely on an alternative method like IP geolocation to identify user's current location. Furthermore, the increasing concerns over user privacy mean that businesses have to be careful about how they retrieve and process location data. Hence, we have decided to address both of the issues in a unique and latest update of our most popular Free Client-side Reverse Geocoding API. The new update allows you to reverse-geocode the current user's coordinates (if consent is given) or provide an estimation of locality information based on the client's IP address. Some key features and benefits of the API are: π Free forever! π NEW - Backed up by the world's most accurate next-generation IP Geolocation technology (patent pending) π’ Enterprise-grade redundant infrastructure. Operated from eight geographically diverse data centres across the globe β Better than 99.999% availability β© Unprecedentedly fast response time (sub-millisecond) πΊοΈ Delivers administrative/non-administrative boundaries-based results π Provides detailed locality information of a user in 148 common world languages π¬ Full postal code level geographical accuracy for the US, Great Britain, and Australia (partial for other countries) π Full global coverage, including seas and oceans π Unique IP Geolocation fallback to provide estimated location data even when no clientβs geocoordinates are available π€ Friendly with GDPR and GDPR-like privacy laws βοΈ Responsive customer support, even for entirely free APIs π Geocoder data updated weekly, IP Geolocation daily. No contract, no hidden fees, and no account required. Both commercial and non-commercial uses permitted with no rate restrictions as long as conditions of our Fair Use Policy are met. Thank you for checking out. Deep BigDataCloud
