GeoCode
Description
GeoCode performs geocoding functions in geopositioned maps in Autodesk® AutoCAD®. Pick a point in your map and GeoCode will display its full street address (or the address of the nearest location). Or enter a full address and GeoCode returns its lat-long coordinate plus creates a geomarker on this position (with the address as its label). You can also use it to geocode the what3words geolocation codes.
In AutoCAD you need to first set the GEOGRAPHICLOCATION of your map.
License: GeoCode is a free utility by CAD Studio - see Freeware.

General Usage Instructions
Load the GEOCODE utility and choose the function from the GeoCode ribbon tab. You can also use two LISP interfaces for reverse geocoding (works in any version of Autodesk® AutoCAD®) - e.g.: revgeocodeLL '(48.9669 14.4768)) evaluates to: "Tylova 153/17, 370 01 Ceske Budejovice, Czech Republic" nonsense coordinates evaluate to "ZERO_RESULTS" and: (revgeocode (getpoint)) works as the GEOCODE command, returns the address string. You can also use a LISP interface function to convert an address to a lat-long point: (geocodeLL "Tylova 17, Ceske Budejovice") returns a list: (48.9666 14.4768).
And in the what3words variant - the function: (revgeocodeLLW3 '(48.9669 14.4768)) evaluates to: "purses.casually.question" and the function (geocodeLLW3 "purses.casually.question") returns a list: (48.9669 14.4768).

Commands
| Ribbon/Toolbar Icon | Command | Command Description |
|---|---|---|
|
GEOCODEA |
The GEOCODEA command performs standard (forward) geocoding - it prompts for a full address (free-format text string) and returns its lat-long coordinates plus it creates a geomarker on this position (with the address as its label). You can also paste a list of addresses e.g. from Excel. |
|
GEOCODEW3 |
Uses the what3words service to convert a location to a 3-word address code. |
|
GEOCODEAW3 |
Uses the what3words service to convert a 3-word address code to a location (position marker). |
|
GEOCODE |
The GEOCODE command performs reverse geocoding - it converts a picked point to its postal address. Pick a point and GeoCode will display its full street address (or the address of the nearest location). In AutoCAD® you need to first set the _GEOGRAPHICLOCATION (use the WORLD-MERCATOR coordinate system) and your current layer must be ON. In Autodesk® AutoCAD® Map / Autodesk® AutoCAD® Civil 3D® you need to first set the coordinate system of your map. |
