Mapzen Places API for Android

This release introduces the Mapzen Places API for Android including UI components and data APIs that combine Mapzen maps and geocoding into a seamless search experience to help you access open location information for places all around the world.

Place Autocomplete

The Place Autocomplete API provides a search UI component that you can integrate into your app with a few lines of code. It is highly customizable and can be configured to only return search results with a precise address or results that are business establishments.

Place Picker

The Place Picker API combines the Place Autocomplete API with a map to allow place selection from multiple UI components.

Place Details

If you do not need a UI component but would like to receive place detail information, you can use the GeoData API to programmatically query for autocomplete results.
