Converts a free-form address, postal code, place name, or POI into latitude/longitude. Returns a ranked list of matches with importance scores, a structured address breakdown (house number, road, city, county, state, postcode, country), and a bounding box. Backed by OSM Nominatim — global coverage, attribution required by ODbL. Use it as a forward geocoder, address to lat-lng converter, address-to-coordinates lookup, postal-code lookup, place-name resolver, Nominatim geocoder, or OpenStreetMap geocoding API.
