Example use cases
Address to coordinates for delivery app
“I need the GPS coordinates for '221B Baker Street, London' — can you look it up and return the lat/lng so I can plot it on a map?”

Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://rotaryagency.uk/api/free/photon?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need free, open-source-backed geocoding without vendor lock-in, leveraging OpenStreetMap data via Photon. Ideal for agents that need to convert place names or addresses to coordinates (or vice versa) at low cost ($0.002/call) without a Google Maps or HERE API key. Prefer it for general forward/reverse geocoding where OSM coverage is sufficient.
Side effects
- Empty results array if no matching place is found for the query
- Ambiguous results when query matches multiple places (returns ranked list)
- HTTP 402 payment required if USDC payment header is missing or insufficient
- Rate limiting or timeout if the upstream Photon service is unavailable
- Malformed query string may return unexpected or zero results
