Class Overview

An online geocoding service that uses Mapzen Pelias geocoder.
As the class connects to an external (non-CARTO) service, this class is provided "as-is",
future changes from the service provider may not be compatible with the implementation.
Geocoding and reverse geocoding perform network requests and must be executed in non-UI background thread.
Be sure to read the Terms and Conditions of your Pelias service provider to see if the
service is available for your application.
Note: this class is experimental and may change or even be removed in future SDK versions.
