PROC GEOCODE: SAS University Edition?

timex1414 — Sun, 26 Jun 2016 03:37:09 GMT

I am having issues invoking PROC GEOCODE. I have SAS University and when I type the function it appears to highlighted blue just like other functions, however, when I run the code it gives me this error:

ERROR: Procedure GEOCODE not found

Is Geocode included in SAS University, if not, is there a way to download it?

Any help is appreciated.

No. You can't PROC GEOCODE is included in SAS/GRAPH , But UE don't have it unless you want pay some money .
Or you could try other free one, like Google API .

Be careful of Google, Bing and other legal rules.

For example with Google, unless you have the paid Google plan, using the Google geocoder standalone (not with a Google map) may be illegal.

They require that you use Google Maps with most 'content'. Content can be the result of the geocoder.

https://developers.google.com/maps/terms

10.4.d. No use of Content without a Google map. Unless the Maps APIs Documentation expressly permits you to do so, you will not use the Content in a Maps API Implementation without a corresponding Google map.
