I have been using the GMLib for Google Maps operations for some years now without any problems and have made some interesting things if I must say so. But now I am working on another project where I have a full address and needs to geocode that, but I don't need to show it on a map since I just need the latitude and longitude to calculate a QRA locator (it is a system of map grids used by HAM operators all over the world)

I think I could speed up the process by not using a map since it takes time to load every time.

Are there any components or libraries that could help me or isn't it possible to do at all.

    Is the following what you are asking [Google Maps API - Get Coordinates of address](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3652951/google-maps-api-get-coordinates-of-address) – Tom Brunberg Apr 12 '16 at 09:37
  • Also, [take a look at this](http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Nominatim). No Delphi examples (as not in my previous comment), so you would have to figure out how to use these services. – Tom Brunberg Apr 12 '16 at 09:58

    Be careful with that, because you can't use the geocode service without displaying results on a Google map!!! See [polices of geocoding api](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/policies) – cadetill Apr 12 '16 at 14:22
  • OK - I don't want to be violating any policies so I will have ti stick with the way I do it for now. Maybe some day I will find another solution that could add a bit of speed. – OZ8HP Apr 13 '16 at 08:04
