How to turn Typeform location answers into map points?

Hi everyone!

I’m working on an interactive project using Typeform where I collect location data (postal code, city and country), and I’d like to convert these answers into geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) so I can display them as points on a map.

The idea is not only to show the map online, but also to project it onto a physical surface as part of an interactive installation.

I’ ve been advised by IA to use something like: Typeform → Google Sheets → Zapier or Make → Geocoding API → Map visualization. Does this sound like a good approach to you? Would you recommend a simpler or better setup for starting, while keeping it scalable for the future?

If anyone has done something similar or has tips, I’d really appreciate it!

Thanks a lot 😊

Laura.

Hi ​@LauraDiaz so sorry we missed this! Sounds like a really interesting use case, I don’t think I’ve seen anyone do this before, but I am sure it is doable with the help of some API/Zapier/Make magic!

Let us know if you still need some help, and we can dig in to it with you 😊
