I am using the reverse geocoder provided in Google Maps API for Flash
Services and I am finding some issues with managing accuracy that I
don’t know how to handle. I placed a marker on the map at 39.149284,
-89.469391 and did a reverse geocode of this lat/lon to get the
address 'East Fork, Illinois, USA'. I then did a forward geocode of
that same address (East Fork, Illinois, USA) and placed another marker
at the lat/lon that was returned. There is roughly 40 miles between
these 2 points. My question is, why is the address that is returned
not one of the many cities/towns that is found to be closer to the
first marker? What could I do to handle this type of problem? Should
I set a threshold for ‘Accuracy’ that is provided in the return result
and implement some logic that would hide addresses if they are not
found to be above a certain level of accuracy? What best practices do
you recommend?
