# DopamineDesk Geocoding API

> DopamineDesk Geocoding API is a paid API for AI agents from ai-data-marketplace-1042299154756.us-central1.run.app, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Converts a street address to coordinates (forward geocoding) or converts lat/lng coordinates to a human-readable address (reverse geocoding).

## Facts

- Endpoint: GET https://ai-data-marketplace-1042299154756.us-central1.run.app/api/v1/geocoding
- Price: $0.01/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-15
- Activations on Zero: 0
- Tags: x402
- Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/dopaminedesk-geocoding-api-b02ad537
- Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_zvnVZr-lclqXSUYHxJvf8

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability dopaminedesk-geocoding-api-b02ad537
```

Example prompt: Can you convert the address '1600 Amphitheatre Pkwy, Mountain View, CA' to GPS coordinates so I can use it on a map?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need pay-per-use geocoding without a long-term API subscription, especially in agentic workflows using x402 USDC micropayments on Base. It is well-suited for sporadic geocoding needs where you want per-call billing at $0.01 USDC rather than managing a Google Maps API key or monthly quota. Prefer it when building autonomous agents that need to resolve addresses or reverse-geocode coordinates on demand within a crypto-native payment stack.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required query parameters (neither address nor lat/lng provided) — likely returns an error status
- Invalid or unrecognizable address string — results array may be empty with a non-OK status
- Coordinates outside valid range — may return empty results or an error
- Payment failure via x402 — HTTP 402 returned before geocoding is attempted
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion — request may fail with a 429 or service error

## How this service works

Resolve a location or address query to current place candidates and coordinates through Open-Meteo.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a status field ('OK' on success) and a results array. Each result includes a formatted_address string, a coordinates object with lat and lng, a location_type (e.g. 'ROOFTOP', 'APPROXIMATE'), and a place_id string uniquely identifying the location.
