Convert Location Names to Coordinates Automatically

Conversations about where to hold meetings or set up operations get messy with location names spread across comments. When anyone mentions a location in a Linear issue, automatically get its precise coordinates added to your workflow, so you always have structured location data.

Trigger

Comment Received Trigger

Triggered when a comment is received.

Action

Geocode by Place

Tool to transform a place name or address into geographic coordinates. use after confirming the location name to get precise latitude and longitude.

Why this helps

Locations get mentioned informally in comments without standardized coordinates, making it hard to analyze where your business operates or where future work will happen

  • Automatically capture precise coordinates from location mentions
  • Build a structured location database from comments
  • Reduce manual data entry for geographic tracking
  • Support location-based analysis and planning

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Linear and Ambee integrations to Notis
  • 2Create automation: 'When someone comments with a place name in an issue, geocode that location and save the coordinates'
  • 3Trigger: 'Comment Received', applies to all issue comments
  • 4Select notification channel for geocode results
  • 5Test by leaving a comment with a city name in an issue and verify coordinates appear

Questions about this workflow

Does it work for partial addresses?

Yes. You can mention a full address, a city name, or even a landmark, and Notis will find the most likely coordinates.

What if a location name is ambiguous?

Notis uses context clues from your business to identify the right location. For very ambiguous names, mention additional details like state or country.

Where are the coordinates stored?

They appear in the notification you receive, and you can ask Notis to log them to a tracking document or export them for analysis.
