OverviewTopics:

• What is the Batch Geocoder API?

• Why use the Batch Geocoder API?

This section introduces the Batch Geocoder API and describes its

common use cases.

Batch Geocoder API Developer's Guide 6► Overview

What is the Batch Geocoder API?Batch Geocoder API is a web service that allows users to geocode large data sets (hundreds of

thousands). Users upload a single input file, the service processes the data asynchronously and

returns a single file with the results.

Why use the Batch Geocoder API?Use the Batch Geocoder API to geocode large data sets in one batch. Upload addresses or geographic

coordinates that you have in a text file and download the complete results in one file when the

job is done. The Batch Geocoder API saves you from sending individual service requests to the

service address by address. And since the result is also in text form (delimited file format) your client

application does not need to parse XML or JSON.

Jobs are processed asynchronously. Clients can either wait for an email notification or poll the status

of the job and download the result when the job is completed.

For geocoding the input can be qualified addresses (structured input) or free-form search strings,

both containing complete or partial address information. For reverse geocoding the input is

geographic coordinates and an optional radius. The result per input is either a single record exactly

matching the input or a sequence of records ranked by relevance when the input is ambiguous. In this

respect the Batch Geocoder API works just in the same way as the transactional Geocoder API.

The service is for forward and reverse geocoding. Landmark geocoding is not available for batch at

this time.

Batch Geocoder API Developer's Guide 7► Quick Start

Chapter

Quick StartTopics:

• Batch Geocoder Example

This article describes the simplest scenario using the Batch

Geocoder API and illustrates it with a working example.

Note that the example uses demo credentials. These are suitable

for testing, but must be replaced with application-specific

credentials in your own applications. Please see also Acquiring

Credentials on page 12.


Batch Geocoder ExamplePerforming batch geocoding on a data set means to run a series of commands:

1. Upload the data to the Batch Geocoder and start the processing job

2. Download the results when processing is done

After you have submitted the job and downloaded the results, you can optionally delete the job.

app_id and app_code are authentication credentials. You can use the demo credentials in the

examples for testing, but must substitute them with your own unique values in your website or

application. See Acquiring Credentials on page 12 for more information.

Note: When using a command line utility such as cURL or wget, remember to set the headerbefore specifying the body of the request.

1. Start a new batch geocoding job and upload the data to be geocoded by submitting an HTTP

POST request with action=run and attaching the input data to the body. Set the HTTP header

Content-Type to text/plain. The following is an example for geocoding addresses, i.e.

forward geocoding.

http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs?action=run&mailto=<my_email>&gen=7&header=true&indelim=|&outdelim=|&outcols=displayLatitude,displayLongitude,locationLabel, houseNumber,street,district,city,postalCode, county,state,country&outputCombined=false&app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg&app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL

Example input:

recId|searchText|country0001|Invalidenstraße 116 10115 Berlin|DEU0002|Am Kronberger Hang 8 65824 Schwalbach|DEU0003|425 W Randolph St Chicago IL 60606|USA0004|One Main Street Cambridge MA 02142|USA0005|200 S Mathilda Ave Sunnyvale CA 94086|USA

If you want to reverse geocode from a set of geographic coordinates, see the following example.

http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs


?action=run&mailto=<my_email>&gen=7&header=true&mode=retrieveAddresses&maxresults=1&indelim=|&outdelim=|&outcols=displayLatitude,displayLongitude,distance,locationLabel, houseNumber,street,district,city,postalCode, county,state,country&outputCombined=false&app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg&app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL

Example input:

recId|prox0001|52.505308,13.327739,2500002|49.917257,8.486488,2500003|51.119593,7.399356,2500004|49.20012,8.12326,2500005|51.116845,7.397318,2500006|52.265938,7.976922,2500007|48.143131,10.829233,2500008|51.770237,7.442682,2500009|51.511877,7.461382,2500010|52.53,13.391389,250

2. The result of the jobs request contains a RequestID. Use this RequestID to identify this job infuture actions you want to perform on it.

Example response:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?> <ns2:SearchBatch xmlns:ns2="http://batch.geo.nlp.nokia.com/lbsp/Search-Batch/1"> <Response> <MetaInfo> <RequestID>12331722725344</RequestID> </MetaInfo> <Status>accepted</Status> <TotalCount>0</TotalCount> <ValidCount>0</ValidCount> <InvalidCount>0</InvalidCount> <ProcessedCount>0</ProcessedCount> <PendingCount>0</PendingCount> <SuccessCount>0</SuccessCount> <ErrorCount>0</ErrorCount> </Response> </ns2:SearchBatch>


3. Optionally, check the job status with a GET request

http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs/<RequestID>?action=status&app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg&app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL

4. Download a zip file containing the results from the following link:

http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs/<RequestID>/all?app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg&app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL

The zip file contains the results and reports.

• the geocoded addresses (result_YYYYMMDD-HH-MM__out.txt)

• addresses that could not be matched (optional file) (result_YYYYMMDD-HH-MM__err.txt)

• invalid input that could not be processed (result_YYYYMMDD-HH-MM__inv.txt)

• a report file (result_YYYYMMDD-HH-MM__rpt.txt)

where YYYYMMDD-HH-MM is the date and time when the job was processed.

Note: You can also access the results files individually at

jobs/<RequestID>/result

jobs/<RequestID>/errors

jobs/<RequestID>/no-matches

The articles in this part of the guide explain essential concepts and

show how to use the Batch Geocoder API.

The text is accompanied by examples that show the API in

operation. Note that where credentials are required, the examples

use demo ones. These are acceptable for testing purposes, but

must be replaced by application-specific credentials in real-life

applications (please see also Acquiring Credentials on page 12).


Acquiring CredentialsAll users of HERE APIs must obtain authentication and authorization credentials and provide them as

values for the parameters app_id and app_code. The credentials are assigned per application.

To obtain the credentials for an application, please visit http://developer.here.com/get-started for

more details.

Constructing a RequestA request to the Batch Geocoder API includes the basic elements shown in the following table and, in

addition, it may contain resource-specific parameters.

Customer Integration TestingHERE is committed to maintain the best possible production service for all customers. Given that the

production environment is live and common to all API users, we request that you use the alternative

Customer Integration Testing (CIT) environment when evaluating our products, running tests, making

changes in your code and altering the way you access our APIs.

The CIT environment also allows you to test your software against a newer version of the service

before HERE brings that version into production. CIT offers a fully functional environment for

http://developer.here.com/get-started


customers to use for development and testing, but it does not support high loads or performance

testing in general.

Note that the same application id can be used in both environments, but CIT may require a dedicated

application code. If this is the case, please contact us as described under Service Support on page

22.

The CIT environment is not intended for general production use.

Input DataInput data consists of the addresses to be geocoded. Your input must abide by the following

limitations:

• The number of lines to geocode is limited to 1,000,000 (excluding the header)

• The maximum request size is limited to 2GB uncompressed

If the request exceeds these limitations, the request returns an error and the addresses are not

processed.

You must provide the input data in a delimited file format. The field delimiter can be any of the

following characters:

• | (pipe)

• ; (semicolon)

• : (colon)

• , (comma)

• \t (tab)

Just as with Geocoder API, the address data can be structured (qualified) or unstructured (freeform).

The following is an example of an input file with the address as freeform with a country code qualifier

using "|" as a delimiter.

recId|searchText|country 1|425 W Randolph St, Chicago Illinois 60606|USA 2|31 St James Ave Boston MA 02116|USA 3|10115 Berlin Invalidenstrasse 117|DEU

The following is an example of the same addresses in fully qualified form:

recId|street|city|postalCode|country 1|425 Randolph St|Chicago||USA 2|31 St James Ave|Boston|02116|USA 3|Invalidenstrasse 117|Berlin|10115|DEU


The column recId is optional. If provided, it is repeated in the output for reference. If you have an

occurrence of the delimiter character in the data, you must enclose the data in double quotes. Below

an example where the delimiter is a comma and the input contains commas.

recId,searchText,country 1,"Sturmstraße 8, 80687 München", DEU 2,"Milano", ITA 3,"Rom", ITA 4,"Tecklenburger Straße, Westerkappeln 49492", DEU 5,"425 W Randolph St Chicago, Illinois, 60606", USA

Basic Input Fields

Input field names are not case sensitive. When no record ID is supplied (field name recId), then

the BGC will generate one as a sequence from 1 to numLines. Record IDs may be of any form and

may contain numbers and/or strings. They even may consist of several words. The result will be

alphabetically sorted by recId.

Table 2: General

retrieveAddresses - Search for the

closest street address or addresses

retrieveAreas - Retrieve the

administrative area information for the

position provided in the request

trackPosition - Retrieve street

information based on a position and bearing

pos pos=lat,lon,bearing

Use with mode=trackPosition

A position with latitude, longitude, and bearing.

Bearing expresses the direction in which an asset

is heading in degrees starting at true north and

continuing clockwise around the compass. North

is 0 degrees, east is 90 degrees, south is 180

degrees, west is 270 degrees.

prox prox=lat,lon,radius

Use with mode=retrieveAddresses and

retrieveAreas

A type of SpatialFilter. A spatial filter limits the

search for any other attributes on the request.

Proximity specifies a circle to search using a

latitude, a longitude, and a radius in meters.

Guide.

Output DataThe output data follows the format that was specified when starting the job. The first three columns

are fixed and are always:

• recId

• seqNumber

• seqLength

recId is the same id you provided in the input. seqNumber and seqLength are used to number

ambiguous results for an input address. For the input "425 Randolph St" two results exist: E and W

Randolph St. The seqLength is the number of records returned, which is 2 in this case, and both

results are sorted by seqNumber. There is no guarantee that the result is sorted by recId and

seqNumber.

In the example below the complete output for the example input data in Input Data on page 13 can

be found:

recId|seqNumber|seqLength|displayLatitude|displayLongitude |houseNumber|street|city|postalCode|country|1|1|2|41.8838692|-87.6389008|425|W Randolph St|Chicago|60606|USA1|2|2|41.884201|-87.6168594|425|E Randolph St|Chicago|60601|USA2|1|1|42.3508606|-71.0714722|31|Saint James Ave|Boston|02116|USA

Cancelling a JobTo cancel a job use the cancel action with an HTTP PUT. This requires the <RequestID>.

http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs/<RequestID>?action=cancel&app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg&app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL


Removing a JobAfter you have downloaded the results you can delete the job using HTTP DELETE. This requires the

<RequestID>. This removes the input, the results and also the status from the server.

http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs/<RequestID>?app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg&app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL

Note: Jobs are automatically removed from the server 30 days after they are processed.

ToolsWhen submitting a job using “wget” and “cURL”, check field names (e.g., &outCols=recId,…) and

field delimiter in the request for both the input and the output. wget and cURL will return a “400 Bad

Request” response in case there is a mistype or when the delimiter does not match the delimiter

in the input file. Both wget and cURL need a content type to be specified in the header. Uploading

compressed address data is currently not supported.

wget

For wget use the header

Content-Type: text/plain

Example:

wget --header="Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8" --post-file=addresses.txt "http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs? &app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg &app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL &action=run &header=true &inDelim=; &outDelim=, &outCols=recId,latitude,longitude,locationLabel &mailto=<my_email> &outputcombined=true &language=de-DE"


cURL

If you use cURL, be sure to add the following header

Content-Type: text/plain

and submit the payload using the --data-binary parameter.

Example:

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: text/plain" --data-binary @addresses.txt "http://batch.geocoder.cit.api.here.com/6.2/jobs? &app_code=AJKnXv84fjrb0KIHawS0Tg &app_id=DemoAppId01082013GAL &action=run &header=true &inDelim=; &outDelim=, &outCols=recId,latitude,longitude,locationLabel &mailto=<my_email> &outputcombined=true &language=de-DE"
