+where `lat` and `lon` are latitude and longitude of a coordinate in WGS84
+projection. The API returns exactly one result or an error when the coordinate
+is in an area with no OSM data coverage.
+
+
+!!! danger "Deprecation warning"
+ The reverse API used to allow address lookup for a single OSM object by
+ its OSM id for `[PHP-only]`. The use is considered deprecated.
+ Use the [Address Lookup API](Lookup.md) instead.
+
+!!! danger "Deprecation warning"
+ The API can also be used with the URL
+ `https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/reverse.php`. This is now deprecated
+ and will be removed in future versions.
+
