| Step One - Starting with a single address field | |
| Edit Column > Add Column by Fetching URLs | |
| Nominatim has a limit of 1 geocode per second so make sure to set the throttle delay to greater than 1000 milliseconds | |
| Fetch URL based on column (quotes needed): | |
| "http://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search?format=json&email=[YOUR_EMAIL_HERE].com&app=google-refine&q=" + escape(value, 'url') | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | |
| Step Two - Extract lat/lon from newly created JSON blobs | |
| Edit Column > Add Column based on This Column | |
| Parse Json and concatenate latitude, longitude: | |
| with(value.parseJson()[0], pair, pair.lat + ',' + pair.lon) | |
