## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to discover businesses or points of interest near a geographic location using OpenStreetMap data, especially when you want category filtering (cafes, pharmacies, ATMs, hotels, restaurants) with distance information. Prefer it over general web search for structured, location-anchored POI lookups with coordinates and address data as output.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns validation error
- No results found if the search term doesn't match OpenStreetMap categories in the area
- Very remote or sparsely mapped locations may return empty results
- Overly broad or misspelled category queries may return irrelevant results
- Extremely large radius values may time out or return too many unfiltered results

## How this service works

Places search: find businesses and points of interest (cafes, pharmacies, hotels, ATMs, restaurants...) near a city, address or coordinates from OpenStreetMap, with category, address, coordinates and distance.

## Output

Returns a list of places matching the search query near the specified location, each with name, category (e.g. cafe, pharmacy, hotel), full address, geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude), and distance from the query point in meters. Results are sourced from OpenStreetMap.
