Geocodio is my go-to resource for geocoding small or large amounts of data because of its intuitive interface, clear instructions/documentation, accuracy, and price.

This is a tool that anyone can use, not just data scientists or GIS experts.

You have addresses.
Turn them into context.

FIPS codes so your grant application has teeth. Census demographics so you can study pollution is in lower-income neighborhoods. Census tracts so you can connect to HRSA data. Congressional districts so you can map who represents the communities you're studying. School districts so you can build an enrollment plan.

Whatever your academic role, from instruction to research to administration, Geocodio shrinks the time it takes to transform your address data.

Upload a spreadsheet, check the box for what you need, and Geocodio adds it. The whole thing takes about ten minutes, which you may find suspicious at first. (One professor thought it was a joke. It wasn't.)

No ArcGIS license. No trip to the computer lab. No formatting files the way the Census website demands. And if the Census site is down when your deadline is looming, just use Geocodio.

A magical bridge between your addresses and every government dataset

+

You need Census tracts so you can join to HRSA, CDFI, CMS, or other government data. Add them with one click while geocoding.

And you can get much more than FIPS codes. Here's a small sample of what you can get back from Geocodio:

[Geocodio] is able to process large numbers of addresses quickly and efficiently... [and] I am familiar with and confident in their work. I have taken sample data sets in which the true coordinates are known, and contrasted the accuracy of their estimates with those produced by other leading geocoding services. The differences in accuracy were minimal.
