osmdroid - How to get the city name by latitude and longitude using openstreetmap in android -

-

in app using osm rather google map.i have latitude , longitude.so here how query city name osm database..plz me.i using osmdroid-android-3.0.8.is there library have download this?

this can done through reverse geocoding, convert latitude/longitude point human readable address. typically, reverse geocoding done web-request.

in case, open street maps has reverse geocoding api can make requests web service , consume xml/json response city name.

making reverse geocode request osm web service this:

http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/reverse?format=xml&lat=[latitude]&lon=[longitude]&zoom=18&addressdetails=1

where:

  • [latitude] latitude point reverse geocoded.
  • [longitude] longitude point reverse geocoded.

this give result looks so:

<reversegeocode timestamp="fri, 06 nov 09 16:33:54 +0000" querystring="...">    <result place_id="1620612" osm_type="node" osm_id="452010817">      135, pilkington avenue, wylde green, city of birmingham, west midlands (county), b72, united kingdom    </result>    <addressparts>      <house>135</house>      <road>pilkington avenue</road>      <village>wylde green</village>      <town>sutton coldfield</town>      <city>city of birmingham</city>      <county>west midlands (county)</county>      <postcode>b72</postcode>      <country>united kingdom</country>      <country_code>gb</country_code>    </addressparts>     </reversegeocode>

you can process result xml document find city name node.

an alternative use google's geolocation api.
