Convert Geolocation to an address String Field
Hi Everyone.
I have a Longitude and Latitude field on a custom object. I am trying to convert the Longitude and Lattitude to a address string in a field.
e.g. -43.5349616 172.6418029
=
String of "219 Tuam Street, Christchurch"
Is this possible? tried the web for this however can only find information on going the other way around street to lat.
Any help would be great

How about using Google API?
You can get JSON type address by the longitude and lattitude like below.
http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?latlng=-43.5349616,172.6418029
