The geocoder relation indicates a templated link that can be used to search for locations. This functionality is often called geocoding. The link is found on the API root (p:root).

Example

{
  "_links": {
    "http://rels.goabout.com/geocoder": {
      "templated": true,
      "link": "https://api.goabout.com/geocoder/encode{?query,count,types}"
    }

}

A GET request to the URL https://api.goabout.com/geocoder/encode?query=oude+delft will return locations matching “oude delft”.
