Hi Steve,

The company I was initially dealing with for the geocoding was http://www.Map24.com but now Google have released geocoding for Ireland so I’ve started using that. Please see this post:

Hi Tom,

That looks really interesting. I’ve just been playing with it there and it has been running quite nicely. It’s been finding some quite obscure addresses without fail for me. The scary thing is, it’s actually been finding the house numbers as well and been accurate as well. Excellent find. Thank you kindly. I’ll put up a post dedicated to it now.

Rgds, Dave

Have a look at mapflow (www.mapflow.com) based in Merrion Sq. They have a product called location agent that does this job very nicely. Mostly commercial sector tho.

Hi Dave. Unfortunately, I don’t. It really has been crazy busy here and I haven’t been able to dedicate any time towards it. I hear you calling though so I will try and squeeze in a bit of time to work on this. Keep at me though…

@Niall: To be honest, I really haven’t been able to apply the time to this as I would like to. I’ve so many project commitments on at the moment that it is hard to find the spare time to do anything. I need to use one of my projects as an excuse to work on this so I’m looking at one to do it for. Hopefully I’ll be able to do it soon.

@John: Missed you at BarCampDublin. I heard you normally attend them and would have enjoyed chatting to you about this. If I remember correctly, you use the hack the lycos route planner, which (afaik) uses the map24 directory. So the service I’m trying out is the map24 one. I wouldn’t mind getting a hold of the php class. I work in ASP so I’ll need to translate it over but it shouldn’t be too difficult with that as a start.
