Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to extract the exact coordinates from list of addresses that I have. I have no idea how to do it or even if it is possible in FME. I have just list of ~1000 addresses in Excel file and I would need to get the exact coordinates of each address. Is it possible to be done in FME?
Thank you in advance!
Hi,
I think, what you're looking is Geocoding. Unless you have some sort of street and streetnumbers data that you can use along with your Excel file, you can try Geocoding API from Google.
This Web Service will return you coordinates in JSON format that you can use later on.
You should give it a try (call it with HTTPCaller or similar transformers) and tell us your findings.
Cheers,
