Cicero
Cicero is a powerful Cloud API designed to seamlessly match addresses or locations to legislative districts while providing comprehensive contact information for elected officials.
Things you might want to use Cicero for:
- Provide an elected official lookup tool on your website.
- Create constituent records in your database.
- Display district boundaries on a map.
- Show elected official profiles in your app.
Documentation
The primary way to get information from Cicero's database of officials and districts is through a location query.
When you include API call parameters that provide a location in the form of a latitude & longitude coordinate, street address, or postal code, Cicero will find that location on the Earth's surface and match it against a range of district boundaries. In this way, you can determine which elected official represents any home, business, or place in regions with Cicero coverage.
