Question

我正在尝试编写一个简单的代码来检查街道地址是否存在：

在我的第一次尝试中，我把写地址给了我正确的地址：

addr <- '2147 Newhall Street,Santa Clara,CA 95050'  
url = paste('http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=',  addr,'&sensor=false',sep='')  
doc = xmlTreeParse(url) 
root = xmlRoot(doc) 
lat = xmlValue(root[['result']][['geometry']][['location']][['lat']]) 
long = xmlValue(root[['result']][['geometry']][['location']][['lng']]) 
lat
"37.3386004"
long
"-121.9405759"

但如果我写错了街道地址，它仍然给我坐标：

addr <- 'xyz,Santa Clara,CA 95050'  # set your address here
url = paste('http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/xml?address=',      addr,'&sensor=false',sep='')    
doc = xmlTreeParse(url) 
root = xmlRoot(doc) 
lat = xmlValue(root[['result']][['geometry']][['location']][['lat']]) 
long = xmlValue(root[['result']][['geometry']][['location']][['lng']]) 
lat
"37.3539663"
long
"-121.9529992"

我确定上面的街道地址不存在，但我仍然得到一些坐标。无论如何，如果没有有效的街道地址，我可以返回NA值或一些标志吗？

ggmap包中已经有一个很好的Google Maps地理编码API包装器。如果您将output参数设置为more，则会返回loctype，表示地址是否精确匹配（rooftop）或近似值（approximate ，range_interpolated，geometric_center）。有关详细信息，请参阅the documentation。

library(ggmap)
addr <- '2147 Newhall Street,Santa Clara,CA 95050' 
geocode(addr, 'more')
# Information from URL : http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=2147%20Newhall%20Street,Santa%20Clara,CA%2095050&sensor=false
