SwissSearch: geocoding¶

Swisssearch geocoding allows the user to search for swiss locations, like postcode, cantons, cities, toponymic datase (SwissNames) and addresses.

Note: The swiss cantons only allow websites of the federal governement to use the addresses search service.

You may however use this service using the ‘no_geom’ parameter returning no geocoded addresses, to check for the existence of an address.

URL¶

https://api.geo.admin.ch/swisssearch/geocoding

Input parameters¶

The following parameters are required:

lang: optional lang: de (default) or fr
query: the query string to find (mandatory if egid is not transmitted)
egid: the egid used to find an address (mandatory if query is not transmitted)
DEPRECATED citynr (optional): the city number (BFS id). Use the bfsnr parameter instead.
bfsnr (optional): the city number provided by the BFS
cb (optional): the name of the callback funtion
format (optional): per default, the response is always in JSON format. Per default, a limited set of attributes are returned (notably a label attribute containing a html tag). ‘raw’ returns all the available properties of the selected feature(s) as well as their geometries
no_geom (optional): defines if the geometry is returned. ‘true’ means that the geometry is sent back. ‘false’ means that only the bbox is sent back (apply only when raw format is requested)
services (optional): Comma sepatared list of services to search in. Current possible values are: ‘cities’, swissnames’, ‘districts’, ‘cantons’, ‘postalcodes’, ‘parcel’ and ‘address’. The later is only for the federal administration, due to restrictions imposed by the cantons. Default is to search in all services except ‘parcel’
layers (optional): Comma separated list of layer technical names.

The service returns a maximum of 20 results.

Services in use:

cities: communes
swissnames: all toponymes as printed on the national maps
districts: the swiss districts (not all cantons have districts)
postalcodes: ZIP code from swiss Post
adress: from the register for buildings and dwellings (BFS)
parcel: cadastral information provided by the cantons. A parcel is identified by a city name and a parcel id (or eventually by a BFS city number and a parcel id)
attributes: in order to search within attribute information of a layer
