New Geocoding Extension

Development & Design

Hi everyone :waving_hand:

I would like to show an extension I wrote. It is a straighforward tool, that geocodes a selected column.

It currently supports a few public APIs, namely Photon, Nominatim and Swisstopo (Note: Swisstopo will only generate results in Switzerland, the other APIs are global)

This is an example output, that you could expect:

If you’re interested, you can install it via my releases page.

If you are unsure how to properly integrate the extension into OpenRefine, make sure to follow the guide in my README.md. There are also some other useful infos there, so if you are unsure of anything go check it out.

Feel free to drop any questions or feedback right here in this thread. If you encounter any bugs or have specific feature requests, you can also open an issue directly on GitLab!

Thanks for reading and I hope you find the tool useful!

Very cool! The link for the README goes to a login page, but this one seems to work:

Weird, for me both links worked when I tried them in a private browser. Nevertheless thanks for the attention to detail, I adjusted the link so hopefully everyone can use it!
