Convert Address to GeoJSON Coordinates
How does a JSON object say goodbye?
I'll be key-ping in touch!
What did the array say to the JSON object?
You've got some serious key-value problems.
Why was the JSON file so confident?
It knew its place, key by key.
What do you call a well-structured JSON document?
A true object of desire.
Why did the JSON programmer break up with the XML programmer?

Address
Geocoding is the process of converting a human-readable address (like '1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA') into geographic coordinates (like latitude and longitude). These coordinates can then be used to place markers on a map or perform spatial analysis. GeoJSON is a standard format based on JSON for encoding a variety of geographic data structures. A 'Feature' in GeoJSON represents a spatially bounded thing and typically includes a 'geometry' object (like a 'Point' with coordinates) and a 'properties' object for additional metadata. An Address-to-GeoJSON converter utilizes a geocoding service to find the coordinates for an address and then wraps the result in a standard GeoJSON Feature object. This makes the data immediately usable in many mapping libraries and GIS tools like Leaflet, Mapbox, or Google Maps API.
