Generating Coordinates From An Address


jtrost

Recommended Posts

I run a travel website, and have a database of about 1,700 local businesses.  Right now I have the address, city, state, and zip for each business, and I want to get the longitude and latitude for each business using the address (I wrote an algorithm that lists all nearby businesses and it requires coordinates).

 

Is there any free service I can use where I can send an address, and it will return an XML document (or something similar) with the coordinates, which I can then parse out and throw into my database?

 

Thanks.
