Supported Operations

The following operations are supported for Belarus:

Geocoding—Takes one or more addresses as input and returns latitude/longitude coordinates and other information.
Reverse Geocoding—Takes one or more latitude and longitude coordinates as input and returns the address of the location.

Input Fields

The input address may contain some or all of the following address elements.


Field Name Parameter	Type	Description
placeName	String	Specifies the building name, place name, Point of Interest (POI), company or firm name associated with the input address. Optional.
mainAddress	String	Single Line Input—If no other address field is populated, then the mainAddress entry will be treated as a single line input. Single line input can consist of multiple input address fields; these should be entered in the typical address order for the country. For more details, refer to the section "Single Line Input" below. Street Address—If the post address components (city, postalCode, etc.) are provided separately or in the lastLine field, then the contents of mainAddress will be treated as the street address part and can include company name, house number, building names and street names. Optional. Street Intersection Input—To enter an intersection, specify the two street names separated by a double ampersand (&&).
lastLine	String	The last line of the address. Optional. For example: Fairchild St Bridgetown BB11000
areaName1	String	Not used.
areaName2	String	Not used.
areaName3	String	Specifies the city or town. Optional.
areaName4	String	Not used.
postalCode	String	Specifies the postal code which consists of the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 prefix (BB) plus 5-digit numeric. Optional.
country	String	ISO 3166-1 Alpha-3 country code or country name. For Belarus, the country code is BRB. Required for forward geocoding.

Single Line Input

Instead of entering each address component in separate fields, you can enter the entire address in the mainAddress input field with the address elements ordered as follows:

[address_number][street_info][area][postal_code]

Where:

[address_number] is optional.
[street_info] consists of the street name, street type and any pre- or post-directional information (e.g. East, West, etc.). Optional.
[area] is the city only, or city plus supporting information, such as state, province, locality.
[postal_code] is the postal code.
Either the [area] or [postal_code] is required.

For best results, put a comma between the street information and the last address line information.

Custom Options

There are no options specific to Belarus.
