• geocode

  Look up an address, place name or point of interest and get coordinates (lat, lon), a readable label and address parts, from OpenStreetMap data. Use it before static_map or privacy_area_map when you only have an address. Counts 1 address lookup against the account's monthly cap.

• reverse_geocode

  Find the nearest address or place to a latitude/longitude, from OpenStreetMap data. Counts 1 address lookup against the account's monthly cap. Same storage terms and attribution as geocode.

• static_map

  Render a map as an image (returned inline) with optional pins (markers) and a line (path, e.g. a route). Give center and zoom, or just markers and/or path and the view is fitted automatically. Also returns a reusable image URL for web pages (add your key). Counts 1 static image a

• parcel_lookup

  Get the property parcel (lot) at a latitude/longitude, or by parcel_id: its boundary, the county parcel number (APN), area in m² and acres, and the public source and date. US coverage from open government data only (see mapiron.com/docs/parcels for the counties covered); owner na

• district_lookup

  List the Texas special taxing districts that contain a latitude/longitude: municipal utility districts (MUD), water control and improvement districts (WCID), fresh water supply, levee and management districts statewide (TCEQ), and public improvement districts (PID) where cities p

• privacy_area_map

  Show roughly where a place is without revealing the exact point. The point is snapped to a grid and drawn as a shaded circle that always contains the true point, with no pin; every address in the same grid cell gets the identical image, so the exact location cannot be recovered o

• map_setup

  Get ready-to-paste HTML/JavaScript for an interactive, zoomable MapIron map in a web page (MapLibre GL JS vector map, Leaflet or OpenLayers raster map), or the raster tile URL template for any other library. Replace YOUR_KEY with a key restricted to the website. Needs no key and
