Typically you geocode your addresses and then check whether one
address is within a radius of the others.

Hi

I wonder if anyone can help me? I am setting up a site for local shops and
local producers in the uk.

Is a postcode lookup or google maps my best option for calculating
proximity? Has anyone achieved this by IP alone? I don't have a big budget
for this and I am not an uber-geek in any sense of the phrase, so if anyone
can recommend any open source projects... (i'm working in perl), I would be
very very grateful.

Cheers

Paul
