android - Geocoder returns multiple addresses -


in android's geocoder, method getfromlocation can return more 1 address given lat long. lat long uniquely represents location on earth surface, why return multiple objects?

reverse geocoding translates latitude, longitude human-readable address. however, there different objects may interested in. example, can search nearest street address, nearest postal code, neighborhood, city, etc. reason reverse geocoder returns more 1 result.

please @ example in geocoder tool.

as can see first result has type street_address, second result has type bus_station, third has type neighborhood, , on until country level.

hope answer addresses doubts.
