Example
This example shows how to convert a geographic location to an address (reverse geocoding).
using XPlat.Services.Maps;
...
private async void OnReverseGeocodeButtonClick(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
// The location to reverse geocode.
var location = new XPlat.Device.Geolocation.BasicGeoposition { Latitude = 47.643, Longitude = -122.131 };
var pointToReverseGeocode = new XPlat.Device.Geolocation.Geopoint(location);
// Reverse geocode the specified geographic location.
XPlat.Services.Maps.MapLocationFinderResult result =
await XPlat.Services.Maps.MapLocationFinder.FindLocationsAtAsync(pointToReverseGeocode);
// If the query returns results, display the address of the first result.
if (result.Status == XPlat.Services.Maps.MapLocationFinderStatus.Success)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine($"Address - {result.Locations[0].Address}");
}
}
Static Methods
Task FindLocationsAtAsync(Geopoint)

public static Task<MapLocationFinderResult> FindLocationsAtAsync(Geopoint queryPoint, MapLocationDesiredAccuracy accuracy)
Parameters
queryPoint (Geopoint)
The point for which you want to get locations.
accuracy (MapLocationDesiredAccuracy)
