Contacts Location Map / Geocoding for Location

Would be awesome if DEX could bring to the platforms where my contacts live at. This way, if I visit Paris, for example, I just sort the contact that live in Paris and talk to them directly. Of course, it would only bring the information from people who live there

Kevin Sun: awesome! Happy to volunteer my time for a user interview at any point in the design / dev process - I'm especially excited for this one to search for connections in areas I'm traveling to

Michael Hammersley

Kevin Sun: YES i'm also excited for this feature! i'm currently trying to figure out how to export to plotly/mapbox for a visualization along these lines; I'd love if this were something that could be automatic!

I've always wanted a feature to see all of my contacts on a global map based on their locations. This would be super helpful when visiting a city to remember who's there. You already pull the city information from LinkedIn, can that be added to a map feature?

Having a visual map would be very helpful

Mikhail Klassen

I've been thinking about a tool like this for years. For people with connections in many different geographies, it would be great to visualize those clusters on a map overlay, using, e.g. the Mapbox API.
