yesterday the pyqgis website was down for maintainance, this is why you couldn’t install.

I’m having a problem trying to add the geocoding plugin for QGIS.

QGIS doesn’t detect the plugin and your link at the top of the page doesn’t work either.

Is it still available?
Thanks,
Sam

Thank you very much for your tutorial.

I have created a tutorial on my blog, http://www.stevevance.net/planning/automatic-geocoding-has-arrived-to-qgis/

@masterqmann: You should use BatchGeocode.com to geocode thousands of addresses (although you will have to divide the lot and process them in several batches). I’ve written a tutorial on how to do this with QGIS. http://www.stevevance.net/planning/geocoding-in-quantum-gis/

this plugin was developed in my spare time, nobody funded its development, so I’m not going to invest more time on it.

If you have a budget for further developments, feel free to send me an email.

Most of search strings that work on maps.google.com will also work with the plugin but the plugin will fail when a single exact location cannot be found.

many thanks,
georg

Really nice tool. Very usefull to add some important easly on a map.

If you want to improve this plugin, it could be nice that the plugin would give you the choise when there are different localisation possible instead to answer with an error.

For example I tried to located the university of Vienna but I can’t because it seems that there is 2 different solutions.

Here is the adress if you want to try:Doktor Karl Lueger Ring 1 1010 Wien, Austria

and here is the error I got: There was an error with the geocoding service:
Didn’t find exactly one placemark! (Found 2.)

Thanks for All
