[ddj] Geocoding tutorials on the School of Data Blog

Tue Feb 19 13:55:20 UTC 2013

Hi All,

If anyone has ever wanted to know how to convert simple place names in a
spreadsheet to lat and long values so that they can put their data on a
map, Rufus Pollock has just put up a couple of tutorials on the School of
Data blog.

An introduction to Geocoding:
http://schoolofdata.org/2013/02/19/geocoding-part-i-introduction-to-geocoding/

Geocoding in a Google Docs Spreadsheet:
http://schoolofdata.org/2013/02/19/geocoding-part-ii-geocoding-data-in-a-google-docs-spreadsheet/

We'll be looking to port them over to the School of Data Handbook in the
near future, so please let us know what you think of them (feel free to use
the blog comments or the mailing lists!).

More soon,

Lucy
