Geocoding with Batchgeo.com

Geocoding is the process of converting street addresses (like "702 Clark Ave., Ames, IA, 50010") into geographic coordinates (like "42.028032, -93.616755") that can be mapped. There are many services that offer geocoding, some are free of charge, some are not.

This task sheet will focus on a website called BatchGeo, which allows users to make basic maps with only a spreadsheet of addresses. The resulting maps can be embedded on a web page or exported as a .kml file for use in programs like Google Earth or ArcMap.
