Hello,

I used “Google codes” to display adresses on the map =\> is this correct ? Some adresses are still well mapped (in US instead of Belgium). Example : 9489+CG Schaltin  
Otherwise, do you know how to have a nice map with all my addresses, what kind of information should I put in my googlesheet?

My app link : [https://nduqe.glideapp.io/](https://nduqe.glideapp.io/)

Thanks in advance !

This is probably the best answer to date for correct addresses in the map. Add the script to your sheet and point your map addresses to the lat/long field in your sheet. Thanks to @Dan_Liebeschutz for the well written article.

> Hi! I don’t know if you had a problem with putting addresses in the map component, but for me, the location pins were showing everywhere but the place I was aiming for. After figuring out how to make it work properly I wrote a very short story about it in Medium: [https://medium.com/@danliebeschutz/how-to-make-addresses-show-correctly-in-glide-app-map-component-d0dcd8dcfba4](https://medium.com/@danliebeschutz/how-to-make-addresses-show-correctly-in-glide-app-map-component-d0dcd8dcfba4) This is me trying to put 4 addresses in Tel Aviv: Before: [image] After: [image] Enjoy!

I just upload my sheet to  
[https://www.geocod.io/upload/](https://www.geocod.io/upload/)

Then just use the lat and long it generates.

+1 for geolocation with Lat & Long instead of an address to populate maps in Glide. (or any component that will require an address)

You can be very, very accurate by setting a marker on Google maps then collecting the Lat & Long it returns.

Hi @dharmel! I just wrote an explanation article on [how to add a custom function script to google spreadsheet from a script source](https://medium.com/@danliebeschutz/how-to-add-a-custom-function-script-to-google-spreadsheet-from-a-script-source-db1bb8b0483b?sk=94d79be794bf91c6ef90cce1583f6452). Can you please check it out and tell me if it helped?

It also has in it a video showing the steps.

I don’t think I could do any better than Dan’s explanation. It’s about as step-by-step ads it gets.

Hi,

Google Maps gives you a daily limit to your queries: 1.000

Beyond it, Google punishes you for 24 hours. Many of us have walked that lonely way before 🤣

Have you ever tried another service besides Google Maps? I have seen some out there, not sure if they have higher limits daily.

Years ago I knew and worked with ArcGIS software a little, their GIS applications are amazing!!

They had APIs very powerful but I don’t know if those are free yet. Here their web page:

Thank you I’ll have a look later. Here are some other options I have read about.

Great technique but unfortunately it fails if I try to process more than ~125 cells at a time in my arrayformula. ☹

Google…limits…psh, screw that. Make multiple accts on google, feed data to accts using import range, script runs, what do you do? That’s right you import those results right back into your Glide Google sheet using another import range, thats what you do.
