## 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 saylor-innovations-france-address-geocoder-adf2c494
```

Example prompt: Can you geocode '8 boulevard du Port, Amiens' and give me the coordinates, postcode, department, and INSEE commune code for it?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you specifically need French address geocoding backed by the official Base Adresse Nationale dataset, which is the authoritative French government address registry. It is ideal when you need administrative metadata like INSEE commune codes, department, and region alongside coordinates — data that generic global geocoders often omit for France. Prefer it over general-purpose geocoders for French-language addresses, French administrative workflows, or when INSEE codes are required.

## Known failure modes

- No results found for ambiguous or misspelled address — returns empty results array
- Non-French addresses return no results as the BAN only covers France
- Missing required 'q' query parameter returns an error
- Very short or vague queries may return low-confidence or irrelevant results
- Service unavailable or payment failure returns HTTP 402 or 5xx error

## How this service works

French address geocoder from the Base Adresse Nationale - coordinates, confidence, INSEE commune code, postcode, department and region for any address

## Output

Returns a JSON object with the interpreted query string, data source attribution, number of results, and an array of matching address results — each containing coordinates (latitude/longitude), a confidence score, INSEE commune code, postcode, department name/code, and region name/code.
