Overview
Geocode.XYZ - Enterprise Geoparsing, Geocoding and Reverse Geocoding AMI
Geocoded location intelligence for your AWS infrastructure. Launched in 2016 by Geolytica, Geocode.XYZ processes over 100 million monthly API calls worldwide, delivering reliable geolocation services with a 99.99% uptime SLA and average response latency of 200ms.
Key Capabilities
- Geoparsing: Scan unstructured text for locations, extract addresses, street intersections, postal codes, zip codes, and place names, then convert them into precise geographic coordinates.
- Geocoding: Convert addresses and place names into latitude, longitude, and elevation coordinates with rooftop-level accuracy (over 50% of requests return a confidence score of 1).
- Reverse Geocoding: Translate coordinates back into human-readable addresses, place names, postal codes, location codes, and unique location numbers.
- Batch Geocoding: Process large datasets efficiently, geocoding multiple addresses simultaneously for high-throughput workflows.
- Autocomplete API: Provide real-time suggestions for incomplete address data, improving user experience in address input applications.
- Sentiment Analysis: Analyze text sentiment alongside location extraction for enriched data insights.
- IP Address Geocoding: Resolve IP addresses to geographic locations.
Output Formats and Integrations
Export results as GeoJSON, JSON, XML, or CSV. Integrate seamlessly with AWS services including Amazon S3 for batch file input and output, and AWS Lambda for serverless API invocation. Built on OpenStreetMap data sources with worldwide coverage and region-specific biasing options for improved accuracy across Europe, South America, Asia, and Oceania.
Security and Data Privacy
All data stays within your VPC - the AMI does not send data externally. Your location data remains fully isolated in your AWS environment, giving you complete control over sensitive address and coordinate information. All API communication uses HTTPS encryption in transit.
Infrastructure Requirements
This AMI requires an EC2 instance with at least 200GB of RAM to support the full geocoding database. Select instance types from the memory-optimized family (such as r5 or r6i series) to meet this requirement.
Industry Use Cases
- Logistics and Supply Chain: Validate and standardize delivery addresses in bulk, optimize route planning with precise coordinates, and reduce failed deliveries through address verification.
- E-Commerce Platforms: Enable localized marketing campaigns using reverse geocoding, auto-complete shipping addresses to reduce cart abandonment, and segment customers by geographic region.
- Media and Publishing: Automatically tag news articles and content with location data extracted via geoparsing, enabling geographic content discovery and location-based news feeds.
- Data Analytics: Enrich datasets with geographic coordinates for spatial analysis, map visualization, and location-based business intelligence.
Getting Started
- Launch the AMI on a memory-optimized EC2 instance (minimum 200GB RAM)
- Configure security groups to allow HTTPS traffic on the API port
- Access the API endpoint at your instance's public or private IP
- Begin making geocoding, reverse geocoding, or geoparsing requests using your preferred output format

Pricing is based on actual usage, with charges varying according to how much you consume. Subscriptions have no end date and may be canceled any time.
Additional AWS infrastructure costs may apply. Use the AWS Pricing Calculator to estimate your infrastructure costs.

t3.2xlarge Recommended | $1.00 |

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour for the software running on your own EC2 server, billed per instance-hour. Pricing scales with the EC2 instance type you launch, so you choose the compute size that fits your workload. Available options include compute-optimized instances (c7a.24xlarge, c7a.32xlarge, c7i.24xlarge) and a memory-optimized instance (r7iz.8xlarge). Larger instances carry higher hourly rates because they provide more compute and memory capacity. There are no software-bound usage limits; throughput depends only on the server you select. You may scale up by running larger instances or adding more servers.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
You pay for each hour the software runs on your chosen EC2 instance. One unit equals one instance-hour. Every running server accrues charges per hour based on its instance type. Larger instances cost more per hour because they carry more compute and memory capacity.
The software licence meters running time only, so a fully powered-off instance does not accrue software charges. Stopped instances may still incur underlying AWS storage fees for attached volumes. Charges resume per hour once you restart the instance.
No software-bound limits apply. You run the software on your own server with no usage restrictions. Throughput depends only on the hardware you launch. You may scale up by choosing a larger instance type or by adding more servers.

64-bit (x86) Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
Version 2.6 is a security bug fix.
Additional details
Usage instructions
Access the server on http://<instance-ip>:80 for usage instructions & quick start. Make sure your server has at least 30GB of memory. You may also SSH to the instance and log in as 'ec2-user' using the key specified at launch to use the API internally. Additional information can be found at : https://geocode.xyz/api .

Cannot load

Have tried loading this instance with everything up to a c5.18xlarge and cannot get any response from the public IP or SSH. Thisis after 30 minutes. I hope I'm not being charged from creation of instance ---

Reverse geocoded a few thousand locations (mostly in western Europe) and it worked like a charm. I ssh-ed into the box and adjusted one of the example scripts to process my csv file.
It is cheaper to just launch a small server which gives unthrottled and unlimited api access(I launched a T2.2xlarge) than using their batch web api if you have a small file ($1.3 vs their minimum $20 charge)

It does the job, but could be a bit faster

Review from a verified AWS customer
So, I went ahead and tested with the cheapest possible instance ( r4.2xlarge ). It is not available on any instance with less than 60GB of RAM, unfortunately.
After I started the instance I got a message on port 80 saying: "Temporarily Unavailable :
Churning through startup tasks. Try again in a few minutes."
"A few minutes" turned out to be about 6 minutes. After that it was still slow to respond for another 10 minutes, so I guess the "churning" was not yet complete.
It did perform reasonably well afterwards on my test suite for both Reverse and Forward geocoding. My test suite contains worldwide locations, with the majority in Singapore, Australia and New Zealand.
As to the quality of the results, they were good. My only reason for the three stars is the slow time it took for the machine to get off the groud and running (about 20 minutes including the "churning" time), and also the fact that it is not available on cheaper instance types.
