I am looking for services that provide API to get list of suggestions for given part of address like:

GET http://example.com/suggest?q=Mosc ->

{'suggestions': ['Russia, Moscow, Moscow',
                 'Russia, Moscow',
                 'Russia, Moscow Oblast',
                 'Greece, Moschato, Moschato-Tavros',
                 'Greece, Moschato, Moschato']}

The only one I have found is HERE, but I am looking for other options. I don't have any requirements (paid service is OK).

  • A world wide search is probably a bit much. Would a solution with a starting location and a radius be ok? When searching for "Mosc", the results will likely be thousands, like every bus station, every street, every sight seeing in Moscow. Is that what you need? May 19, 2020 at 22:04
  • @ThomasWeller yes, it's ok to have a starting point. I am open to your suggestions. If a service gives me thousands of results, I will probably find a way to limit them to meet my needs.

  • It's likely more the other way round: if an API request produces too much data, it might take a long time to process and a) the connection times out or b) the result is truncated or c) it takes a long time to transmit. My approach would be a similar to this one, using OpenStreetMap data. I'll try to come up with a solution that is close to your request, but it may take some time. May 20, 2020 at 5:40
  • @ThomasWeller excellent! Patiently waiting for your response.
