1GPS coordinates are those collected by a GPS receiver. If you're looking for random point locations within a country, please edit the question to request that. – Vince Sep 23 '15 at 13:18

So the coordinates tag should be removed? – Arya Sep 23 '15 at 13:24

1There's nothing GPS-specific about "coordinates". "geocoding" did not seem to apply. – Vince Sep 23 '15 at 13:41

1use the overpass api (openstreetmap) here is an example of finding a placename within a bounding box overpass-turbo.eu/s/bCD (use the data tab to see the raw output after running) – Mapperz♦ Sep 23 '15 at 13:45

@Mapperz thanks for the link, but I'm trying to use this from my Java program. Is there an API that I can call from my program? Even a paid option would be usefull for me – Arya Oct 2 '15 at 4:34
