Amanda, a logistics analyst at a regional transportation company, stared at her spreadsheet containing 3,000 latitude and longitude coordinates from their fleet's GPS tracking system. Her manager needed physical addresses for each location by end of day for a regulatory compliance report. She opened Google Maps and manually entered the first coordinate: 40.7128, -74.0060. Copy. Paste into spreadsheet. Repeat. After 30 minutes, she had processed only 15 locations. At this rate, she'd need over 16 hours to complete the task. Amanda's frustration mounted as she realized she'd have to work through the weekend again, manually converting geocodes one by one. The tedious process not only consumed her time but also risked human error with each manual entry. There had to be a better way to convert latitude and longitude to address data without spending days on mindless data entry.
That’s when Amanda discovered the Excel Reverse Geocoder from ExcelDistanceCalculators.com, an Excel-based tool that instantly converts latitude and longitude coordinates into real street addresses. No coding or technical setup required—just open the file and start using it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Google Maps API key? Is it free?
Yes, the tool uses the Google Maps Geocoding API to ensure accuracy. Setting up your free Google Maps API key takes about 5 minutes – we provide step-by-step video instructions. Google gives you 40,000 free conversions per month (worth $200 in credits). After that, it's only $5 per 1,000 additional conversions. Most of our customers stay well within the free tier.
Why not just use Google Maps directly or a web-based tool?
Manually entering coordinates into Google Maps one at a time is extremely time-consuming. Web-based tools charge $0.02 per conversion with a $19.95 minimum, plus you have to upload files and wait for results. With our Excel tool, you get unlimited conversions with a one-time $97 purchase, everything happens instantly in your spreadsheet, and your data never leaves your computer.
How many coordinates can I convert at once?
You can convert as many coordinates as you need in a single run. The tool processes approximately 3-5 coordinates per second, so 1,000 coordinates takes about 5-7 minutes. Keep in mind Google's API limits and costs if you're processing more than 40,000 coordinates per month, but for most users, the free tier is plenty.
Does this work for international addresses?
Absolutely! The tool works worldwide because it uses Google Maps' global address database. Whether your coordinates are in Canada, Europe, Asia, or anywhere else, you'll get accurate local address formats automatically. The only requirement is a valid latitude and longitude coordinate pair.
What if I need help or have questions?
This is where we're completely different from other tools. You get direct access to Vinnie – the creator of the tool – via phone (801-243-8350), live chat on the website, or email. Need help? Vinnie will hop on a Zoom call to walk you through any issues. It's real personal support, not a ticket system or AI chatbot.
Is this a monthly subscription or one-time purchase?
It's a one-time purchase of $97 for a single-user license. No monthly fees, no annual renewals, no surprise charges. Buy it once, own it forever. We also offer a multi-user license for teams. Compare that to a subscription model where you pay per conversion indefinitely – our tool pays for itself after your first few projects.
