Street Address to Lat/Long Conversion
Posted: Tue Oct 05, 2010 8:43 am
I am working on a personal project that requires users to enter an address. Then the address will get converted into Latitude and Longitude values which will then be saved into our local database for future reference.
My question to you all, is how would you all suggest I go about doing the address to lat/long conversion. I know the Google Maps API allows this sort of conversion, but they also have restrictions on how you may use the converted values. (See http://code.google.com/apis/maps/faq.ht ... der_exists)
What are your thoughts?
