Reverse Geocode a Point in Japan: Municipality Code and Block (GSI)

gsireversegeocoder/reverse-geocode

Reverse geocodes a latitude and longitude in Japan with the reverse geocoder of the Geospatial Information Authority of Japan (GSI): returns the five digit municipality code (JIS code, whose first two digits are the prefecture) and the Japanese name of the block or district, for example 13101 and 丸の内一丁目 for Tokyo Station. The municipality name itself is not included. A point at sea or outside Japan returns an empty result. GSI data, passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official GSI product.
