Find the Census geography for a coordinate

Start with coordinates from your location data and get the Census geography context needed for further analysis.

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

Coordinates alone do not tell a team which tract or county to use in a demographic query.

  • Identify Census geographies associated with coordinates.
  • Use location data to prepare a more specific statistical query.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Agiled and Census Bureau once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation and instruct Notis to reverse geocode supplied coordinates.
  • 3Select a Notis webhook trigger for your Agiled process.
  • 4Choose where Notis should send run reports.
  • 5Test with one real coordinate pair.
