I want to develop my own maps app. I have been successful in getting a street address at the point of touch on my iPhone using CLGeocoder
. Now my question is the following:
https://maps.google.com/?q=37.324599,-122.031844
CLGeocoder
will only give me its street address i.e. 10110 N De Anza Blvd Cupertino, CA 95014
(I get this). But how to get the actual name i.e. St Joseph of Cupertino Church and Parish
?Is there any way to access those place names (Not just by CLGeoCoder
, any way is fine).
The GeoCoding API in general is for converting between street addresses and coordinates. If you want place names you can probably use the Places API.
(I know this is more of a comment than an answer, but I think I don't have enough reputation points to comment on questions yet)
