NAME

Geo::Coder::CA - Provides a geocoding functionality using http:://geocoder.ca for both Canada and the US.

VERSION

Version 0.03

SYNOPSIS

      use Geo::Coder::CA;

      my $geocoder = Geo::Coder::CA->new();
      my $location = $geocoder->geocode(location => '9235 Main St, Richibucto, New Brunswick, Canada');

DESCRIPTION

Geo::Coder::CA provides an interface to geocoder.ca. Geo::Coder::Canada no longer seems to work.

METHODS

new

    $geocoder = Geo::Coder::CA->new();
    my $ua = LWP::UserAgent->new();
    $ua->env_proxy(1);
    $geocoder = Geo::Coder::CA->new(ua => $ua);

geocode

    $location = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location);
    # @location = $geocoder->geocode(location => $location);

    print 'Latitude: ', $location->{'latt'}, "\n";
    print 'Longitude: ', $location->{'longt'}, "\n";

ua

Accessor method to get and set UserAgent object used internally. You can call env_proxy for example, to get the proxy information from environment variables:

  $geocoder->ua()->env_proxy(1);

You can also set your own User-Agent object:

  $geocoder->ua(LWPx::ParanoidAgent->new());

reverse_geocode

    $location = $geocoder->reverse_geocode(latlng => '37.778907,-122.39732');

Similar to geocode except it expects a latitude/longitude parameter.
