Definition

Namespace:

System.Device.Location

Assembly:

System.Device.dll

Resolves a GeoCoordinate to a civic address synchronously.

public:
 System::Device::Location::CivicAddress ^ ResolveAddress(System::Device::Location::GeoCoordinate ^ coordinate);

public System.Device.Location.CivicAddress ResolveAddress (System.Device.Location.GeoCoordinate coordinate);

abstract member ResolveAddress : System.Device.Location.GeoCoordinate -> System.Device.Location.CivicAddress

Public Function ResolveAddress (coordinate As GeoCoordinate) As CivicAddress

Parameters

coordinate

GeoCoordinate

The latitude/longitude location to resolve to an address.

Returns

CivicAddress

Examples

The following example shows how to call ResolveAddress.

using System;
using System.Device.Location;
namespace ResolveAddressSync
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            ResolveAddressSync();
        }
        static void ResolveAddressSync()
        {
            GeoCoordinateWatcher watcher = new GeoCoordinateWatcher(GeoPositionAccuracy.High);
            watcher.MovementThreshold = 1.0; // set to one meter
            watcher.TryStart(false, TimeSpan.FromMilliseconds(1000));

            CivicAddressResolver resolver = new CivicAddressResolver();

            if (!watcher.Position.Location.IsUnknown)
            {
                CivicAddress address = resolver.ResolveAddress(watcher.Position.Location);

                if (!address.IsUnknown)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Country: {0}, Zip: {1}",
                            address.CountryRegion,
                            address.PostalCode);
                }
                else
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("Address unknown.");
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
