Expected fields do not always appear in the MBGeocodedPlacemark
Using v0.10.0.
If I reverse geocode a point in the water of the San Francisco Bay, "California" does not appear as an administrativeRegion
on the MBGeocodedPlacemark. If I print the addressDictionary
of the placemark, I see that the name
is California, but it is not placed under the state
key.
Sample code:
CLLocationCoordinate2D coordinate = CLLocationCoordinate2DMake(37.763778227711242, -122.32790567148118);
MBGeocoder *geocoder = [[MBGeocoder alloc] initWithAccessToken:<token>];
MBReverseGeocodeOptions *options = [[MBReverseGeocodeOptions alloc] initWithCoordinate:coordinate];
[geocoder geocodeWithOptions:options completionHandler:^(NSArray<MBGeocodedPlacemark *> * _Nullable placemarks, NSString * _Nullable attribution, NSError * _Nullable error) {
NSLog(@"%@", [placemarks[0] addressDictionary]);
}];
Output:
{
ISOCountryCode = US;
country = "United States";
formattedAddressLines = (
"United States"
);
name = California;
}
This makes it challenging to properly format and display reverse geocode data that is powered by a dynamic location at run time. If I reverse geocode a location that has a street address, it likely has a state
field.
Below is the addressDictionary
of a reverse geocode coordinate in downtown San Francisco. The state
is now there. (37.794291209161685, -122.412848997168)
{
ISOCountryCode = US;
city = "San Francisco";
country = "United States";
formattedAddressLines = (
"1187 Washington Street",
"San Francisco",
"California 94108",
"United States"
);
name = "Washington Street";
postalCode = 94108;
state = California;
street = "Washington Street";
subAdministrativeArea = "San Francisco";
subLocality = "Nob Hill";
subThoroughfare = 1187;
thoroughfare = "Washington Street";
}
Specifically, this is happening because the placemark is itself a region, but Placemark is looking for containing placemarks that are regions:

The same behavior applies to all the other “Accessing Containing Placemarks” properties, such as postalCode
. The fix would be to conditionally fall back to self
if self
has a matching scope.
