Geocoding is the process of converting an address to a geographic location (latitude, longitude) by matching an address to an address range. The U.S. Census Bureau provides a public geocoding tool that allows you to geocode up to 10,000 addresses at a time. A geocoded output file is produced that includes the latitude and longitude information for each address. This task sheet takes you through the process of using the Census Bureau’s public geocoding tool, and displaying the results as points on a map using QGIS software.
