Multiple hits in Google Maps

Hey guys,

I've got a question concerning the Google Maps application. I've been using the application and have been generating my own coordinates.

My question is, if you send 1 address to the google api, which has multiple possibilities. Which coordinates do I receive?

for instance if I send Hoboken I have multiple possibilities, for there is a Hoboken in Belgium and in the U.S.

Is there some sort of flag I can request that gives me an idea.

I'm currently looking into this, as soon as I find out more. I will let you guys know.
In the meantime, thank you for taking your time.
