In the dynamic realm of geospatial technologies, the City Mapping API emerges as a critical tool, unlocking the potential to seamlessly translate latitude/longitude coordinates into meaningful location information, with specific emphasis on identifying cities encapsulated by those coordinates. This API represents a crucial advancement in geocoding capabilities, meeting the diverse needs of users seeking accurate, human-readable location information.
In essence, the City Mapping API serves as a transformative force in geographic data processing. While conventional geocoding makes it easy to convert location names or addresses into coordinates, the City Mapping API reverses this process, giving users the ability to extract city names and related details from given latitude/longitude coordinates. . This reversal of geocoding principles improves the adaptability and reach of location-based services, fostering a deeper understanding of the geographic contexts associated with specific coordinates.
As a counterpart to the traditional geocoding process, the City Mapping API serves as a valuable addition to the toolset of applications that rely on geographic data. Users navigating the intricate world of coordinates find in this API a resource that not only converts coordinates into city names but also enriches the understanding of those locations. In a globalized and interconnected world where location data is critical to various industries, the City Mapping API is a testament to accuracy and innovation in geographic information processing. It offers a streamlined and efficient solution for translating coordinates into vibrant urban landscapes, opening new avenues for exploration, analysis and user engagement in the broad field of geospatial technologies.

Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.
API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.
Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.
To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.
To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, refer to the βX-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remainingβ field in the response header. For example, if your plan allows 1,000 requests per month and you've used 100, this field in the response header will indicate 900 remaining calls.
To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the βX-Zyla-RateLimit-Limitβ response header. For instance, if your plan includes 1,000 requests per month, this header will display 1,000.
The βX-Zyla-RateLimit-Resetβ header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3,600, it means 3,600 seconds are left until the limit resets.
