Reverse Geocode Tool
reverse_geocode_toolRead-onlyIdempotent
Convert geographic coordinates into a human-readable address or place name. Use when you need an address from latitude and longitude.
Instructions
Convert geographic coordinates (longitude, latitude) into a human-readable address or place name. Use only when you need an address/place name alone. If you also need nearby places, neighborhood context, or travel-time reachability, use ground_location_tool instead — it already includes reverse geocoding plus POI search and isochrone in one call. This tool cannot reverse geocode businesses, landmarks, or POIs. Supports JSON and text output formats.
