What would you store in the DB, Coordinates or Address?

Question

I am building an application that uses the GMaps API v3 and, taking advantage of the geocoding function, i dont know if it is better to store in the DB:

1. The coordinates (latitude & longitude)
   • When i need to place a marker, just put it
   • When i need the address, query the API
2. The address (as a string)
   • When i need to place a marker, query the API
   • When i need to post the address, just print it
3. Store Both

What would you recommend?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

I recommend:

1) Storing both

2) Cranberry and Mint Martini. (excellent vodka drink, take after success in programming).
