Geocoding

🏷️ Tags: Geospatial 🔬 Analysis Level: Beginner

🌟 Introduction

Geocoding is the process of converting addresses into geographic coordinates via AI or API integration – an essential step for any analysis involving maps, distance, or spatial relationships. But integrating geocoding into your workflow often requires external tools or custom code.

The Savant Geocoding template simplifies this by connecting directly to the Google Maps API, allowing you to enrich your datasets with accurate latitude and longitude values in just a few clicks.
