Turn a market address into Census geography codes
Send an address when a location question comes up and get the geography identifiers needed to plan deeper Census research.
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
A street address is not enough to request many useful Census statistics, and finding the right geography codes adds friction.
- Resolve a supplied address to Census geography identifiers.
- Make follow-on demographic queries easier to scope.
- Keep location research focused on market addresses, not subscriber records.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect AimTell and Census bureau once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for market address lookup.
- 3In one instruction, ask Notis to geocode the address in the request and return the available Census geography identifiers.
- 4Pick a webhook trigger and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real market address and verify the returned geography levels.
