Translate coordinates into Census market areas
Start from a map pin and identify the Census areas you can use for deeper research.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Geocode Coordinates
Finds Census geographic areas associated with coordinates.
Why this helps
A coordinate pair is difficult to use in demographic research until it is connected to Census geography boundaries.
- Identifies Census geographies associated with coordinates.
- Supports state, county, tract, block, congressional district, and other available areas.
- Connects map locations to follow-up market research.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Adyntel and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to reverse geocode supplied coordinates into Census geographies and summarize the results with relevant Adyntel context.
- 4Pick the webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real coordinate pair and check the returned area.
Questions about this workflow
What does reverse geocoding return?
It returns Census geographic areas associated with the supplied decimal degree latitude and longitude, including supported areas such as states, counties, tracts, and blocks.
Can the output include congressional districts?
The action description includes congressional districts among the geographies it can return. Actual coverage depends on the coordinates and available boundaries.
Will this action return demographic statistics?
No. It identifies geographies. Use an appropriate Census data action to retrieve statistics.
