Yahoo GeoCode API

GeoCode an address using the Yahoo GeoCode API.

You are now following this Submission

Have you ever wondered what the Latitude and Longitude of the MathWorks headquarters is? Well now you can find that (or any other address) all from within MATLAB. This function queries Yahoo to geocode an address string. The address can be anything from a company name, a city, a zip code, or a full comma seperated street address.

*Note: You need an AppID to query data from Yahoo. There is a sample AppID provided by Yahoo. I'm not sure what will happen if everyone uses the sample, so if your actually going to use this to make more then a few queries please get your own AppID.
