xServer2 reverse geocode

I only find geocode operations in the api-documentation.
Are there no reverse geocode operations like the xlocate -> findLocation in xServer1 to find the nearest Street, City... by given coordinates?

Hello Fabian,

I get the point ;-) And just today we saw the recent changes in xLocate:

The team works on a SearchByPosition...Request.
The topic is under construction (experimental) so far and I hope we can provide it with the API from 2.11.

So stay tuned!

Best regards,
Bernd

Try this...

xServer 2.11 offers a first implementation of "Reverse Geocoding"
Sample of the 2.11 implementation: Red dot and grreen line represent the exact address that is closest to the input coordinate
