GeoKit: Going International?
We have been asked whether GeoKit could be made to support UK addresses and this is something that we’re interested in doing. I must admit that I was incompletely uninformed as to how different these addresses really are. Just have a look at Wikipedia has to say about UK addresses. In specific, we’ve been asked to support this geocoding service: www.postcodeanywhere.co.uk.
So since we’re looking into this, I thought it might be a good idea to solicit other suggestions for geocoding services and address variants which GeoKit doesn’t already support, but which would be useful to the Rails community. It appears there will be some refactoring involved, so it makes sense to do a little due diligence by broadening the input process.
So drop me or Andre a note or comment and let us know.
