ADVANCED BETA
This module contains functions and procedures that make use of location data services, such as geocoding, reverse geocoding, isolines and routing computation.
Your CARTO account has monthly quotas assigned for each LDS service that are used up by every call to the LDS functions and procedures in the Analytics Toolbox.
Accordingly, the use of these functions and procedures requires providing authorization credentials to prevent fraudulent usage. Two parameters are needed:
api_base_url
The API base url is simply the address through which you can access all the services of your CARTO account, and it depends on the region or premises where your account is located. Usually it will be this one:https://gcp-us-east1.api.carto.com
.lds_token
The LDS token is an API Access Token that is allowed to use the LDS API. You must keep this secret! Anyone that has access to this token can use up the LDS quota assigned to your account.
Both the API base url and your LDS token can be accessed through the developers section of the CARTO user interface. The API base url is displayed inside this section while for the LDS token you will have to create a new API access token allowing the LDS API.
tip
To check that everything works correctly, without spending any credits, make a call to the
LDS_QUOTA_INFO
procedure. You can enter the following in the GCP Bigquery console having selected the project where the Analytics Toolbox is installed:carto-un
carto-un-eu
manual
CALL `carto-un`.carto.LDS_QUOTA_INFO(
'<my-api-base-url>',
'<my-lds-token>'
)
CALL `carto-un-eu`.carto.LDS_QUOTA_INFO(
'<my-api-base-url>',
'<my-lds-token>'
)
CALL carto.LDS_QUOTA_INFO(
'<my-api-base-url>',
'<my-lds-token>'
)
You should get a JSON response like this, with the available services and the quotas:
[
{
"used_quota": 10,
"annual_quota": 1000,
"providers": {
"geocoding": "tomtom",
"isolines": "here"
}
}
]
LDS quota is an annual quota that defines how much geocoding and isolines you can compute. Each geocoded row or computed isolines counts as one LDS quota unit. The single element in the result of LDS_QUOTA_INFO will show your LDS quota for the current annual period (annual_quota), how much you’ve spent (used_quota), and which LDS providers are in use.
This also will allow you to verify that you have the right credentials, the AT is installed correctly and the service is working.
GEOCODE_TABLE(api_base_url, lds_token, input_table, address_column, geom_column, country, options)
warning
This function consumes LDS quota. Each call consumes as many units of quota as the number of rows of your input table. Before running, we recommend checking the size of the data to be geocoded and your available quota using the
LDS_QUOTA_INFO
procedure.Description
Geocodes an input table by adding a column
geom
with the geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) of a given address column. This procedure also adds a carto_geocode_metadata
column with additional information of the geocoding result in JSON format. It geocodes sequentially the table in chunks of 100.api_base_url
:STRING
url of the API where the customer account is stored.input_table
:STRING
name of the table to be geocoded. Please make sure you have enough permissions to alter this table, as this procedure will add two columns to it to store the geocoding result.address_column
:STRING
name of the column from the input table that contains the addresses to be geocoded.geom_column
(optional):STRING
column name for the geometry column. Defaults to'geom'
. Set toNULL
to use the default value.country
(optional):STRING
name of the country in ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. Defaults to''
. Set toNULL
to use the default value.options
:STRING
|NULL
containing a valid JSON with the different options. In addition to the options targeted at the geocoding service described below, a boolean optioncarto_force_geocode
(false by default) can be used to force geocoding rows that already have a non-null value ingeom_column
. Valid geocoding service options are described in the table below. If no options are indicated then 'default' values would be applied.ProviderOptionDescriptionAll
language
ASTRING
that specifies the language of the geocoding in RFC 4647 format.
If the input table already contains a geometry column with the name defined by
geom_column
, only those rows with NULL
values will be geocoded.If you plan to repeat the geocoding process, bear in mind that if you drop columns from your table you won't be able to create columns with the same name for a period of time (7 days) because BigQuery reserves the deleted columns names for time travel purposes. So, for example, instead of dropping the
geom
column to re-geocode all rows, update the table and set it to NULL

(route calculation from start to destination optimized by travel time. In many cases, the route returned by the fast mode may not be the route with the fastest possible travel time. For example, the routing service may favor a route that remains on a highway, even if a faster travel time can be achieved by taking a detour or shortcut through an inconvenient side road) and"short"

LDS_QUOTA_INFO(api_base_url, lds_token)
Description
Returns statistics about the LDS quota. LDS quota is an annual quota that defines how much geocoding and isolines you can compute. Each geocoded row or computed isolines counts as one LDS quota unit. The single element in the result of LDS_QUOTA_INFO will show your LDS quota for the current annual period (annual_quota), how much you’ve spent (used_quota), and which LDS providers are in use.
api_base_url
:STRING
url of the API where the customer account is stored.
Return type
STRING
Example
carto-un
carto-un-eu
manual
CALL `carto-un`.carto.LDS_QUOTA_INFO('my_api_base_url', 'my_lds_token');
-- [{"used_quota": 10,"annual_quota": 1000,"providers":{"geocoding":"tomtom","isolines":"here"}}]
CALL `carto-un-eu`.carto.LDS_QUOTA_INFO('my_api_base_url', 'my_lds_token');
-- [{"used_quota": 10,"annual_quota": 1000,"providers":{"geocoding":"tomtom","isolines":"here"}}]
CALL carto.LDS_QUOTA_INFO('my_api_base_url', 'my_lds_token');
