Hi Revel, Do you have underlying data layers with which to geocode (say TIGER/Line for the US or NRN or RNF for Canada)? Do you want the software local to your machine, or will a web service work?
If you have data layers and you want to do it locally, look at PAGC: www.pagcgeo.org You likely will want the older command line version of the software, which is available in the pagc_old folder, which is located at http://sourceforge.net/projects/pagc/files/ If you are doing this for the US, and don't mind a web based service, take a look at your cross-town rival's site: https://webgis.usc.edu/Services/Geocode/ Dan On Mon, 2010-04-26 at 11:14 -0700, Revel Sims wrote: > Hello, > I was referred to this list for a question i had regarding batch > database geocoding.
