jtrost Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 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. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/186290-generating-coordinates-from-an-address/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ignace Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 That free service would be Google. Maps in particular. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/186290-generating-coordinates-from-an-address/#findComment-983823 Share on other sites More sharing options...
