## Using Mapzen for Geocoding and Routing
You can use Mapzen as the [geocoder service provider](http://cartodb-platform/dataservices-api/geocoding-functions/#geocoding-functions) with CartoDB. You can also use the [Mapzen API](https://mapzen.com/documentation/search/) directly, to geocode your data. Additionally, the Mapzen routing service is built into the [routing functions](http://cartodb-platform/dataservices-api/routing-functions/#routing-functions) of CartoDB.
