What is Pelias?
Pelias is a search engine for places worldwide, powered by open data. It turns addresses and place names into geographic coordinates, and turns geographic coordinates into places and addresses. With Pelias, you’re able to turn your users’ place searches into actionable geodata and transform your geodata into real places.

We think open data, open source, and open strategy win over proprietary solutions at any part of the stack and we want to ensure the services we offer are in line with that vision. We believe that an open geocoder improves over the long-term only if the community can incorporate truly representative local knowledge.

Endpoint descriptions

  • Forward geocoding (/v1/search) to find a place by searching for an address or name
  • Reverse geocoding (/v1/reverse) to find what is located at a certain coordinate location
  • Autocomplete (/v1/autocomplete) to give real-time result suggestions without having to type the whole location
  • Structured Geocoding (/v1/search/structured) (beta) to find a place with data already separated into housenumber, street, city, etc
  • Place endpoint (/v1/place) for details on a place returned from a previous query
