Find Places API
The Find-Places API allows you to retrieve places by a variety of criteria, including:
- Name prefix (implement your favorite autocomplete widget)
- Countries
- Time zones
- Types
- Min/max population
- Or near a specific GPS location
Results can be sorted (in both ascending and descending order) by:
- Name
- Country Code
- Elevation
- Population
Results can also be displayed in multiple languages (where the WikiData translation is available). Note that when a language is selected, the namePrefix param is matched on the version of the data corresponding to that language.
For the list of available languages, see the Get Languages API.
