Question

I am using Reverse Geocoding to get the location name. I debug on simulator and run the following query:

http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/geo?json&ll=-42.307546,-101.048116&sensor=false

And it results in the following result:

{
  "name": "-42.307546,-101.048116",
  "Status": {
    "code": 602,
    "request": "geocode"
  }
}

It does not result in getting the location name for me. How can I find the location name? Please Help.
Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

Status: This includes the response code of the request, which is a simple way to determine what actually happened when the request was performed. The possible response codes are as follows:

200: Successful request (at least one placemark was returned).
400: Bad request (the server was unable to understand the request).
500: Server error (an unknown internal error occurred).
601: Missing query. This means the q parameter was not specified (or was an empty string).
602: Unknown address. This means that the request was performed but no placemarks were found.
603: Unavailable address. The given address could not be returned due to legal or contractual reasons.
610: An invalid Google Maps API key was specified.
620: Too many queries have been performed using the given API key.

The problem is because of the values of latitude and longitude.
