Я знаком с двумя API обратного геокодирования - Google Maps и foursquare. У обоих проблемы. Рассмотрим lat, lng = 35.699,139.707 (Токио).
Foursquare:

Меня интересует запись response.venues[0].location.city. К сожалению, я не знаю японцев, поэтому я не могу сказать, что это такое. Ну, google говорит, что это Синдзюку - один из специальных подопечных Токио.

API Карт Google на английском языке, но его результаты слишком низки. Например, города и города обычно идентифицируются с типом locality. Здесь находится Синдзюку, который является одним из специальных подопечных Токио, но это деталь реализации административной системы Токио. Я хочу, чтобы Токио стал городом. Конечно, я мог бы искать токен administrative_area_level_1 вместо locality, зная, что Токио фактически является одной из префектур Японии.
Четырехуровневый API имеет ту же проблему, он сообщает о городе как Синдзюку и государстве, как о Токио, только как японский!
Есть ли простой API обратного геокодирования высокого уровня, который возвращает результаты здравого смысла? Я имею в виду, что никто из Японии не говорит: "Я иду в Синдзюку". Люди говорят: "Я еду в Токио".
Спасибо.
