Geocoding.Google question: Which type (from types array) is returned in GoogleAddress.Type?
Google returns types as an array:
{
"results" : [
{
...
"types" : [ "locality", "political" ]
}
],
"status" : "OK"
}
XML version is similar:
<GeocodeResponse>
<status>OK</status>
<result>
<type>locality</type>
<type>political</type>
...
</result>
</GeocodeResponse>
...but GoogleAddress.Type only supports one type: https://github.com/chadly/Geocoding.net/blob/master/src/Geocoding.Google/GoogleAddress.cs#L16-L19
Which type is returned?
I tried to read through the source code but it's a bit ambiguous: https://github.com/chadly/Geocoding.net/blob/master/src/Geocoding.Google/GoogleGeocoder.cs#L336-L374
Thanks!
It seems like the first type is selected.
Example:
- address: Royal Jubilee Hospital
- components: country:CA
Result:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<GeocodeResponse>
<status>OK</status>
<result>
<type>establishment</type>
<type>hospital</type>
<type>point_of_interest</type>
<formatted_address>1952 Bay St, Victoria, BC V8R 1J8, Canada</formatted_address>
...

Is there any way to access the others?
