Mapping City Data

[Mark Weiler-2]

I have some data that is structured in the following way: 

<city name 1>, <numeric data 1>

<city name 2>, <numeric data 2>

...

The numeric data might be something like population or elevation.  Is there a way I could quickly plot the data on a map (e.g., google maps)?

I'd like to avoid converting city name to longitudinal/latitudinal points.

Hi Mark,

Google Fusion Tables can plot the points on a map.
