need help with australian post codes
Posted: Sun May 22, 2005 11:54 pm
hey everyone,
I am looking for a way to find the closest location(s) to a postcode supplied by a user. I'm not just looking for the closest numerically - but the closest geographically. Specifically I am looking for a solution that works with Australian postcodes.
I have been searching online but not managed to find a database of postcode locations calculations- or a way of calculating distance between these - and was hoping that someone might have some experience in this area or pointers to where I should look for further information.
Thanks a lot!
