Unable to get correct syntax of python HERE maps reverse geocoding

I want to use HERE api to reverse geocode lat/lon. I am trying as follows : 

geohere = here('{}, {}'.format(centroid.GetY(), centroid.GetX()), app_id='WCvPg4vFEghHoPxTaRGM', app_code='yfuHH1jW8oIg7ILD1CER4Q')

But Getting IndexError: list index out of range.

What is the correct syntax? I am able to use the command line api but wanted to use the python one.

Here is the documentation: https://geocoder.readthedocs.io/providers/HERE.html

Solution

  • Since you are trying to reverse geocode, you should add the parameter method with value 'reverse' like so: 

    geohere = here('{}, {}'.format(centroid.GetY(), 
                centroid.GetX()), 
                app_id='<app_id>', 
                app_code='<app_code>', 
                method='reverse')`
