View source for Geocoding addresses for Google Maps and Google Earth

To geocode your adresses for google earth or google maps, the basic steps are:

1) find the coordinate points of your list of addresses

[http://www.batchgeo.com Batchgeo] lets you download an Excel sheet which you can fill in and then paste into the system. It will create a map and it will send you the link. In the link, you can choose to 'edit the data'. This will open batchgeo with a data spreadsheet in the paste area. This data contains the latitude / longitude coordinates of all the adresses.

2) [http://http://earth.google.com/outreach/tutorial_spreadsheet.html Google Earth Outreach Spreadsheet Mapper]

This gives you another google documents spreadsheet which you fill in step by step. This will eventually generate a KML for you for Google Earth, but also for Google Maps.
