How about this? http://www.team358.org/files/frc_rec...-1992-2012.pdf

What percent ambiguity did you get when Fusion did batch Geocoding of teams?

It was hovering around 3% I think, I didn't watch it the entire time, it took forever. I am guessing percent ambiguity is locations it can't figure out?

Yes, percent ambiguity is the quantity of locations that it was unsure about and has a high chance of showing an incorrect location.

Processing all the locations does take a while, if you have access to the lat./long. coordinates, it will process match faster as it doesn't have to cross reference each cell.

If you want them, actual team lat/lon's are in here: http://www.team358.org/files/frc_rec...Teams_Ever.xls

These coords are based on the primary school or sponsor locations and avoid the overlapping team problem as well as geocoding errors.
One tab is a list of all teams ever, while another tab are the teams for each season.
