Batch Google Geocoding Script and Data Exporter

##Purpose I needed a geocoder for gdocs that is fast and reliable. Script uses Google Maps API for geocoding. Script also includes some great work that the @mapbox team did to create a geoJSON download of the file.

##Install

  • Copy the source of gdocs_geocoder.js
  • Open your spreadsheet and goto tools > script editor
  • Replace the content in the text box with the copied source from gdocs_geocoder.js
  • Set the name of this script to geocoder
  • Go to file > save and close the popup window
  • Refresh your spreadsheet and you will see a new menu called Geocoder added after Help on the menu bar

##Credit

  • [MapBox] (http://mapbox.com/) team for the geojson export
  • Alan Christopher Thomas for the initial Google Maps geocoder
