michaellunsford Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 Hey, has anyone bumped into a free service that will turn a zip code into an approximate latitude and longitude? Or (even better) something that can calculate the distance between zip codes?

448191 Posted November 17, 2006 Share Posted November 17, 2006 I did this in VB.NET, for dutch zipcodes. All you need is the right formula and a list of zipcodes-coordinates.[url=http://www.cryptnet.net/fsp/zipdy/]Here[/url]'s a link that will be of use to you, it includes the coordinates for USA zipcodes and the logic in php to calculate distances.
