Location Address Of Coordinates

The Location Address Of Coordinates action enables the system to retrieve the physical address (street, neighbourhood, district, city, etc.) corresponding to a latitude and longitude value.

It is commonly used in map-based applications to display the exact address information of a point selected by the user.

Technical Features

  • Reverse Geocoding Process: Converts coordinates to physical addresses.
  • Dynamic Usage: Latitude and longitude values can be obtained through user interaction (e.g., map selection).
  • Real-Time Address Retrieval: Returns real-time address information via API.
  • Location Verification: Enables address verification for processes such as delivery, visits, and services.
  • Integrated Use: Can be integrated with a map component, user form, or location obtained via GPS.
  • Web & Mobile Support: Compatible with both web and mobile applications.

Location Address Of Coordinates Action Application Steps

1. Define the Action in UI Design

  • Log in to the Kuika platform.
  • Open the project you will be working on from the Apps screen.
  • Go to the UI Design module.
  • Open the Properties panel on the right side.
  • Select the element (e.g. a button) for which you want to run the action.
  • Follow these steps from the + ADD ACTION menu:
    • Initial Actions → Geolocation → Location Address Of Coordinates

2. Configure Action Parameters

  • Latitude (Decimal - required): The latitude (horizontal) coordinate value of the point where the address conversion will be performed. For example, it can be selected with a Symbol Picker such as mapCoordinates.latitude.
  • Longitude (Decimal - required): The longitude (vertical) coordinate value of the point where the address conversion will be performed.

Use Case: Displaying the Address of the Selected Point on the Map

When a user clicks on a point on the map, the physical address corresponding to those coordinates should be retrieved by the system and displayed in a Text field.

Application Flow:

  • Go to the UI Design module.
  • Drag and drop the following elements from the Elements panel:
    • Map → Allows the user to select a location by clicking.
    • Label → The area where the address information will be displayed. (labelAddress)
    • Button → Button that starts the ‘Get Address’ process.

Action Flow and Configuration

  1. Adding an Action to the ‘Get Address’ Button
    • Select the button → +ADD ACTION → OnClick → Geolocation → Add the Location Address Of Coordinates action.
  2. Configure the Parameters
    • Latitude
    • Longitude
  3. Display Result (with Set Value action)
    • Immediately after, as a second action:
    • Set Value →
      • Target
      • Value

When the user clicks on any point on the map and then presses the ‘Get Address’ button:

  • The coordinates of the point clicked on the map are obtained.
  • These coordinates are converted to a physical address with the Location Address Of Coordinates action.
  • The resulting address information is displayed to the user via the relevant label element in the application interface.

Location Address Of Coordinates Action Advanced Customisations

  • Integrated Use with Map: Use with the map component to get the coordinates from the location marked by the user on the map.
  • Automatic Address Update: Use the OnChange or OnMapClick event to automatically trigger the action whenever the user changes a point on the map.
  • Form Integration: Address information can be automatically filled in a form (e.g., delivery address).
  • GPS Usage: The Get Current Location + Location Address Of Coordinates combination can be used to obtain the user's current location via GPS and retrieve the address of that location.

Technical Risks and Controls

  • Invalid Coordinates: If invalid latitude-longitude values (e.g., 0,0) are sent, an empty result may be returned.
  • Internet Connection Requirement: An internet connection is required since the operation is performed via an API.
  • Response Time: Reverse geocoding may cause delays depending on the API. A loader display is recommended.

The Location Address Of Coordinates action allows you to convert the user's location data into meaningful address information. It is ideal for map-based operations, delivery and visit systems, or location verification in user forms. It greatly improves the user experience with its dynamic and real-time address retrieval feature.
