Thanks for that, nice little method, this is what I put in:
acts_as_mappable
validates_numericality_of :lat, :lng
before_validation_on_create :generate_geocode
private
def generate_geocode
address = [self.street, self.city, self.location_state,
self.postcode, self.country].join(', ')
geoloc = GeoKit::Geocoders::MultiGeocoder.geocode(address)
errors.add_to_base('Could not geocode address') unless
geoloc.success
self.lat, self.lng = geoloc.lat, geoloc.lng
end
