Supposedly, it is possible to get this from Google Maps or some such service. (US addresses only is not good enough.) Sijin The term you're looking for is geocoding and yes Google does provide this service. New V3 API : http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/ Old V2 API: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/services.html#Geocoding Tim Farley In addition to the aforementioned Google geocoding web service , there is also a competing service provided by Yahoo . In a recent project where geocoding is done with user interaction, I included support for both. The reason is

阅读更多关于 Is there common street addresses database design for all addresses of the world?

I am a programmer and to be honest don't know street address structures of the world, just how in my country is structured :) so which is the best and common database design for storing street addresses? It should be so simple to use, fast to query and dynamic to store all street addresses of the world which is identifying just by one id Thanks a lot Edward Ross It is possible to represent addresses from lots of different countries in a standard set of fields. The basic idea of a named access route (thoroughfare) which the named or numbered buildings are located on is fairly standard, except

Is it a good idea to use an integer column for storing US ZIP codes in a database?

阅读更多关于 Is it a good idea to use an integer column for storing US ZIP codes in a database?

问题 From first glance, it would appear I have two basic choices for storing ZIP codes in a database table: Text (probably most common), i.e. char(5) or varchar(9) to support +4 extension Numeric, i.e. 32-bit integer Both would satisfy the requirements of the data, if we assume that there are no international concerns. In the past we've generally just gone the text route, but I was wondering if anyone does the opposite? Just from brief comparison it looks like the integer method has two clear

Best practices for storing postal addresses in a database (RDBMS)?

阅读更多关于 Best practices for storing postal addresses in a database (RDBMS)?

Are there any good references for best practices for storing postal addresses in an RDBMS? It seems there are lots of tradeoffs that can be made and lots of pros and cons to each to be evaluated -- surely this has been done time and time again? Maybe someone has at least written done some lessons learned somewhere? Examples of the tradeoffs I am talking about are storing the zipcode as an integer vs a char field, should house number be stored as a separate field or part of address line 1, should suite/apartment/etc numbers be normalized or just stored as a chunk of text in address line 2, how

Where is a good Address Parser [closed]

阅读更多关于 Where is a good Address Parser [closed]

问题 I'm looking for a good tool that can take a full mailing address, formatted for display or use with a mailing label, and convert it into a structured object. So for instance: // Start with a formatted address in a single string string f = "18698 E. Main Street\r\nBig Town, AZ, 86011"; // Parse into address Address addr = new Address(f); addr.Street; // 18698 E. Main Street addr.Locality; // Big Town addr.Region; // AZ addr.PostalCode; // 86011 Now I could do this using RegEx. But the tricky

How do you perform address validation?

阅读更多关于 How do you perform address validation?

问题 Is it even possible to perform address (physical, not e-mail) validation? It seems like the sheer number of address formats, even in the US alone, would make this a fairly difficult task. On the other hand, it seems like a task that would be necessary for several business requirements. 回答1: Here's a free and sort of "outside the box" way to do it. Not 100% perfect, but it should reject blatantly non-existent addresses. Submit the entire address to Google's geocoding web service. This service

How should international geographical addresses be stored in a relational database?

阅读更多关于 How should international geographical addresses be stored in a relational database?

问题 Given the task of storing international geographic addresses in a relational table, what is the most flexible schema? Should every part of the address be broken out into their own fields, or should it be more like free text? Is there any sense in separating differently formatted address into different tables? For example, have a table for USAAddress, CanadianAddress, UKAddress...? 回答1: I will summarize my thoughts from my blog post - A lesson in address storage. On my current project [I work
