Is anybody aware of any existing world-wide data-collection effort of postal codes in relation to geogrpahical coordinates (long/lat)? Just: country_code + postal_code <====> (long, lat) in a one-to-one relationship, as crude as that might be.
http://ibWebAdmin.lsces.co.uk/FirebirdFederationDataArchive.html I've added the GB_POSTAREA table with some 3000 primary postal area entries, all with XY coordinates which can be used on www.multimap.com Along with an older US_ZIPCODE table. The plan is to generate a single search table starting from the iso country codes. The current interface is just the PHP management tool into Firebird, but it does allow a CVS export and import for transfers to other databases. -- Lester Caine ----------------------------- L.S.Caine Electronic Services
