I do it fairly manually using batchgeo.com. You can list all customers on a subnet (we use Powercode), then export that or copy paste into an excel spreadsheet. Then, I remove all of the crap and setup the correct columns that batchgeo expects. I end up with a .kml per AP that can be opened in GE, which is extremely useful (even if the process is a bit convoluted).
