  }
]

Examples

Geocode an address

bash
./scripts/places.sh '{"street": "350 Fifth Avenue", "city": "New York", "state": "NY"}'

Find a landmark with photos

bash
./scripts/places.sh '{"query": "Statue of Liberty", "include_photos": true, "photo_radius": 200}'

Search by postal code

bash
./scripts/places.sh '{"postalcode": "90210", "country": "USA"}'

Advanced mode for richer data

bash
./scripts/places.sh '{"query": "Times Square", "mode": "advanced", "include_photos": true}'

Best Practices

  • Use query for landmarks, POIs, and well-known places
  • Use structured address fields for precise geocoding
  • Enable include_photos when you need visual context
  • Use mode: "advanced" for web-enriched place data
  • Combine address components for more accurate results
