Send an address and get the Census geography codes that make location based research easier to continue.
Trigger
Webhook received
Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.
Action
Geocode Address for Census Geographies
Returns coordinates and Census geography identifiers for an address.
Why this helps
An address is easy to collect but hard to use in Census research without the matching geography identifiers.
- Convert a physical address into detailed Census geography identifiers.
- Avoid manually looking up FIPS geography codes.
- Use the returned geography as a starting point for later analysis.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Ai ml api and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and provide a name and prompt.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to geocode the supplied address for Census geographies and report the returned identifiers.
- 4Choose the webhook trigger and select where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real address and verify the response contains the geography detail you need.
