Does anyone have any experience retrieving latitutde and longitude for an address from the Google Maps API?
I'd like to have an R script that submits a street address, city, state, and zip code and returns the coordinates. So far, I've been submitting the coordinates from another program, then loading the coordinates in R and merging them back into the data frame I want to use. It'd be nice to be able to do it all in one script, but I'm not comprehending the API thing very well. I'm using R 2.9.1 on Windows XP. Any suggestions or pointers?
