I want to get the Location name from the Coordinate value in MapKit for iPhone

Question

I want to get the location name from the coordinate value. Here is code,

- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {       CLLocationCoordinate2D zoomLocation;     zoomLocation.latitude = 39.281516;     zoomLocation.longitude= -76.580806;     MKCoordinateRegion viewRegion = MKCoordinateRegionMakeWithDistance(zoomLocation, 0.5*METERS_PER_MILE, 0.5*METERS_PER_MILE);     MKCoordinateRegion adjustedRegion = [_mapView regionThatFits:viewRegion];                     [_mapView setRegion:adjustedRegion animated:YES];       } 

So, From that Latitude and longitude , i want to know that location name.

The Below code shall work in ios5 and above

 CLGeocoder *ceo = [[CLGeocoder alloc]init];  CLLocation *loc = [[CLLocation alloc]initWithLatitude:32.00 longitude:21.322]; //insert your coordinates  [ceo reverseGeocodeLocation:loc           completionHandler:^(NSArray *placemarks, NSError *error) {               CLPlacemark *placemark = [placemarks objectAtIndex:0];               if (placemark) {                     NSLog(@"placemark %@",placemark);                   //String to hold address                   NSString *locatedAt = [[placemark.addressDictionary valueForKey:@"FormattedAddressLines"] componentsJoinedByString:@", "];                   NSLog(@"addressDictionary %@", placemark.addressDictionary);                    NSLog(@"placemark %@",placemark.region);                   NSLog(@"placemark %@",placemark.country);  // Give Country Name                   NSLog(@"placemark %@",placemark.locality); // Extract the city name                   NSLog(@"location %@",placemark.name);                   NSLog(@"location %@",placemark.ocean);                   NSLog(@"location %@",placemark.postalCode);                   NSLog(@"location %@",placemark.subLocality);                    NSLog(@"location %@",placemark.location);                   //Print the location to console                   NSLog(@"I am currently at %@",locatedAt);               }               else {                   NSLog(@"Could not locate");               }           }  ];

-(NSString *)getAddressFromLatLon:(double)pdblLatitude withLongitude:(double)pdblLongitude {   NSString *urlString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://maps.google.com/maps/geo?q=%f,%f&output=csv",pdblLatitude, pdblLongitude];   NSError* error;   NSString *locationString = [NSString stringWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:urlString] encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding error:&error];    // NSLog(@"%@",locationString);    locationString = [locationString stringByReplacingOccurrencesOfString:@"\"" withString:@""];   return [locationString substringFromIndex:6]; }
