Discussion:
Batched Geo Coding (FinderService FindAddress call)

I was successful in using FindAddress call on FindServiceSoapClient to
convert street address to Latitude and Longitude coordinates.

However, I need to do this on potentially tenths of thousands of locations.
I suspect that making that many single requests will be quite slow.

I am looking for ability to send a batch request. Can somebody point me to
the right API and may be an example?


Thank you

Hi,

There's a batch uploader thats included with the MWS 4.5 SDK that you can
start with reference. Take a look at:

and look for a "datauploadclient" directory. In addition, you can take a
look at the following article on MSDN explaining upload jobs:

Hope that helps,
