Subject: Bug/Feature request - Query by lat/long

Howdy, Bing REST services allow for queries by point (latitude and longitude), in addition to query by address. Due the the small difference in the way the query is built, I have not found a way to do a query by point with Geo::Coder::Bing. I think this would be a useful feature and would only require a fairly minor tweak. Standard URL build for address: <Bing URL info>/Locations?query_information Query by point URL build: <Bing URL info>/Locations/<lat>,<long>?additional_query_information Thanks for the awesome module and hope to hear back about your thoughts on this development. -- Justin Fincher *Software Engineer* [image: Homes.com] <http://www.homes.com/> [image: Homes Pro Facebook Fan Page] <https://www.facebook.com/HomesPro> [image: Homes Pro Twitter Page] <http://twitter.com/#%21/HomesPro> [image: Industry trends from the HomesPro blog] <http://connect.homes.com/category/blog/>[image: Connect with Homes.com on LinkedIn] <https://www.linkedin.com/company/2632432?trk=tyah&trkInfo=tarId%3A1397657524300%2Ctas%3Ahomes.com%2Cidx%3A3-1-5>

Such a method should probably look like reverse_geocode() in Geo::Coder::Google. See https://metacpan.org/pod/Geo::Coder::Google::V3#reverse_geocode
