Okay, i was find how i can get coords. But what about country, city, street and house number?

 

var map = $("#map").data("kendoMap");

map.bind("click", function(e) {

console.log("You clicked at " + e.location.toString());

});

Hello Andrey,

You are correct, using the click event handler can provide the coordinates.

As far as I know, transforming these coordinates to a location is not a feature that the Map providers usually provide.

Based on my research, this feature is called Reverse Geocoding, and I did not find any free APIs for it. I believe that the most popular one is provided by Google. You can check it here - https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/geocoding#ReverseGeocoding

I hope the above information is useful.
