The Mapbox Geocoding API v6, currently in Private Preview, introduces several enhancements to improve accuracy and usability for developers working on location-based applications. The new version offers structured input, allowing users to define each component of an address individually, enhancing precision and aiding debugging. Additionally, the Smart Address Match feature provides transparency into result accuracy by breaking down address components and offering a confidence score for query results. The API now supports batch queries of up to 1000 requests in a single API call, which is beneficial for handling large data sets efficiently. The response format has been updated to be more readable and closely aligns with the geojason structure, though developers can opt to retain the v5 format if preferred. Furthermore, the v6 update significantly expands data coverage in Japan, providing access to over 34 million addresses, thus enhancing the utility of location-based services in the region.
