Overview:

Every business or organization has a lot of data that includes an address. The address data is useful only if it is transformed into location information that can be viewed on a map, used in distance calculations, or processed in other similar ways. To make this data useful, one must convert the address to a location having a latitude and longitude. This conversion process is called geocoding. If the address is an IP address, the process is usually called geolocating. This paper will discuss both geocoding and geolocating using PROC GEOCODE. First, one will introduce the concepts needed to understand geocoding, and then one will discuss PROC GEOCODE's current and planned functionality. Finally, examples will show how to use PROC GEOCODE.
