First, thanks for the great web service.

In using findNearestAddress, sometimes it won't return any address when lat lng locates in some city parks.

I am wondering what the cutoff distance is in findNearestAddress. Is there a way to provide radius in the search just like for other services?

Thanks.

The findNearestAddress service accepts now the parameter 'radius' in km. Default is circa 0.2 km or 200m

Cheers

Marc
