How to geocode address data with your AI

Connect Smarty to your AI client to turn raw text addresses into map-ready coordinates. Once connected, your agent handles the validation and conversion automatically.

Short answer

How can I turn addresses into latitude and longitude?

Your AI uses Smarty to validate the street addresses first, then converts them into precise coordinates. This ensures your map data is accurate and actually points to real locations. You'll get a clean set of coordinates ready for any mapping tool.

The results.

Where your data ends up.

The AI processes your raw input and organizes the results into these categories.

CLEAN DATA

Validated addresses

The AI uses Smarty to fix typos and standardize formats. You get addresses that follow official postal standards.

COORDINATES

Lat/Long pairs

Every valid address is converted into precise latitude and longitude. These are ready to drop straight into a map.

ERRORS

Invalid locations

If an address doesn't exist or is too vague, the AI flags it. You'll know exactly which rows need manual fixing.

HUMAN

Manual review

The AI won't guess if it can't find a match. You'll need to step in for addresses that fail validation.

The workflow

What your AI does when the data arrives.

Your agent acts as the bridge between your messy text and professional mapping data.

  1. Standardize input

    The AI checks your US-based addresses to ensure they are real and formatted correctly.

    validate_us_address

  2. Check global locations

    For any addresses outside the US, the AI runs a separate check to verify international formats.

    validate_intl_address

  3. Extract coordinates

    Once the address is confirmed, the AI pulls the specific latitude and longitude.

    validate_us_addressvalidate_intl_address

  4. Flag failures

    The AI identifies which entries are unfixable so you don't waste time on bad data.

  • Geocode the list of addresses in my Google Sheet.

  • Validate these US addresses from my CSV file and give me the lat/long for each.

  • Check these international addresses in my text file and find their coordinates.

  • Look at the address column in this spreadsheet and tell me which ones are invalid.

FAQ

How this task behaves.

  • 01

    Can the AI geocode addresses in the UK or France?

    Yes, as long as you use the international validation capability.

  • 02

    Will the AI fix my typos automatically?

    Yes, the validation tools standardize the address format to correct common errors.

  • 03

    Can the AI create a map image for me?

    No. The AI provides the latitude and longitude coordinates, but you'll need to use a mapping tool to visualize them.

  • 04

    What happens if an address is fake?

    The AI will flag the address as invalid rather than providing incorrect coordinates.

  • 05

    Can the AI delete my original spreadsheet?

    No. The AI only reads the data to perform the validation and geocoding.
