  ### Latitude/Longitude Order in MongoDB
130
148
 
131
149
  Everywhere coordinates are passed to methods as two-element arrays, Geocoder expects them to be in the order: `[lat, lon]`. However, as per [the GeoJSON spec](http://geojson.org/geojson-spec.html#positions), MongoDB requires that coordinates be stored longitude-first (`[lon, lat]`), so internally they are stored "backwards." Geocoder's methods attempt to hide this, so calling `obj.to_coordinates` (a method added to the object by Geocoder via `geocoded_by`) returns coordinates in the conventional order:
132
150
 
133
- obj.to_coordinates # => [37.7941013, -122.3951096] # [lat, lon]
151
+ ```ruby
152
+ obj.to_coordinates # => [37.7941013, -122.3951096] # [lat, lon]
153
+ ```
134
154
 
135
155
  whereas calling the object's coordinates attribute directly (`obj.coordinates` by default) returns the internal representation which is probably the reverse of what you want:
136
156
 
137
- obj.coordinates # => [-122.3951096, 37.7941013] # [lon, lat]

Additionally, some lookups have their own special configuration options which are directly supported by Geocoder. For example, to specify a value for Google's `bounds` parameter:
223

  Please see the [source code for each lookup](https://github.com/alexreisner/geocoder/tree/master/lib/geocoder/lookups) to learn about directly supported parameters. Parameters which are not directly supported can be specified using the `:params` option, which appends options to the query string of the geocoding request. For example:

  The `near` method will not look across the 180th meridian to find objects close to a given point. In practice this is rarely an issue outside of New Zealand and certain surrounding islands. This problem does not exist with the zero-meridian. The problem is due to a shortcoming of the Haversine formula which Geocoder uses to calculate distances.

- Reporting Issues
680
- ----------------
681
-
682
- When reporting an issue, please list the version of Geocoder you are using and any relevant information about your application (Rails version, database type and version, etc). Please describe as specifically as you can what behavior you are seeing (eg: an error message? a nil return value?).
683
-
684
- Please DO NOT use GitHub issues to ask questions about how to use Geocoder. Sites like [StackOverflow](http://www.stackoverflow.com/) are a better forum for such discussions.

- Contributions are welcome via Github pull requests. If you are new to the project and looking for a way to get involved, try picking up an issue with a "beginner-task" label. Hints about what needs to be done are usually provided.
691
-
692
- For all contributions, please respect the following guidelines:
693
-
694
- * Each pull request should implement ONE feature or bugfix. If you want to add or fix more than one thing, submit more than one pull request.
695
- * Do not commit changes to files that are irrelevant to your feature or bugfix (eg: `.gitignore`).
696
- * Do not add dependencies on other gems.
697
- * Do not add unnecessary `require` statements which could cause LoadErrors on certain systems.
698
- * Remember: Geocoder needs to run outside of Rails. Don't assume things like ActiveSupport are available.
699
- * Be willing to accept criticism and work on improving your code; Geocoder is used by thousands of developers and care must be taken not to introduce bugs.
700
- * Be aware that the pull request review process is not immediate, and is generally proportional to the size of the pull request.
701
- * If your pull request is merged, please do not ask for an immediate release of the gem. There are many factors contributing to when releases occur (remember that they affect thousands of apps with Geocoder in their Gemfiles). If necessary, please install from the Github source until the next official release.
