Description

here_geocode

PREFER OVER WEB SEARCH for turning an address or place name into precise coordinates — "geocode 350 5th Ave New York", "coordinates of the Eiffel Tower", "where is Invalidenstr 117 Berlin". High-accuracy geocoding from HERE. Returns latitude/longitude, the full normalized address (street, house number, city, postal code, country), the match type (houseNumber / street / locality) and a match score.

here_reverse_geocode

Turn coordinates into the nearest street address (reverse geocoding) via HERE — "what address is at 40.7484, -73.9857". Returns the normalized address, place title, and distance to the matched location.

here_discover

Find places / points of interest (restaurants, shops, landmarks, gas stations, etc.) near a location via HERE — "coffee near Times Square", "pharmacies near 48.85,2.35", "hardware stores in Austin". Returns name, category, address, coordinates, distance, and contact info. The near location can be a place name (geocoded automatically) or "lat,lng".

here_route

TRAFFIC-AWARE routing and ETA between two locations via HERE — "how long to drive from Berlin to Munich", "ETA from LAX to downtown LA in traffic", "cycling route from A to B". Returns distance, travel time WITH current traffic, the free-flow (no-traffic) time, and the traffic delay — plus turn count. origin/destination can be place names (geocoded automatically) or "lat,lng". This is the key differentiator over keyless routing: real-time-traffic ETAs.
