WinForms Maps - Obtain Information about a Geographical Point Using the Microsoft Azure Maps Geocode Service

This example obtains information about a geographical point using Microsoft’s Azure Geocode service.

NOTE: To incorporate this solution within your DevExpress-powered app, you need an Azure Maps service key. Replace the AzureKey property value with your subscription key to connect to Azure Maps.

Implementation Details

TextEdit elements specify a geographical point (GeoPoint.Longitude and GeoPoint.Latitude). The “Search for Location” button initiates the geocode request. It obtains point information and passes it to the RequestLocationInformation method.

Results contain an address (LocationInformation.Address) and exact coordinates (LocationInformation.Location). Results are displayed within the DevExpress MemoEdit UI element.
