What's this?)
Within the response, several geographical parameters have been added that refer to the geolocation of the underlying venue of the event. These include latitude and longitude, as well as geocoding_precision, which specifies the precision to which the venue address could be found and geocoded, and also the geocoding_ambiguous parameter, which serves as a warning that the geocoding is likely to be erroneous.
Any venue that could not be geocoded at all (i.e. non-US venues) will have blank values in the fields..
