FAQ has:

>Just pass the coordinates as a latitude and a longitude, separated by either a comma or a (URL encoded) space and the API will automagically work out that you want to reverse geocode.

Is the reverse geocoding based on 1. government-source boundary data, or 2. proximity to tagged points from OSM or other non-authoritative sources?



Both where government provides open boundary data, though in most cases that would've been imported into OpenStreetMap already https://opencagedata.com/credits
