What country is at a particular latitude/longitude? This Java library tells you in 50 milliseconds, without using the Internet and without requiring any permission.
- Fast reverse geocoding
- Never needs an Internet connection
For the Android version, see https://github.com/coordinates2country/coordinates2country-android.
This sample program that uses the library might help.
If using Gradle:
implementation("io.github.coordinates2country:coordinates2country:1.6")
For other build systems or for the JAR, search for the latest version on Maven Central.
At the top of your Java file, after the package declaration, insert this line:
import io.github.coordinates2country.Coordinates2Country;
Coordinates2Country.country(-23.7, 39.8) returns the String France.
If you prefer identifiers, Coordinates2Country.countryQID(-23.7, 39.8) returns 142, the Wikidata QID number of France.
Impressed with the library! It swiftly translated coordinates to countries with precision. The developer's quick response to an issue I encountered, despite the library's age, reflects their commitment to user satisfaction. Kudos for a reliable tool and excellent support!
