-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Here is how I handle this for my applications that I need to get a radius distance. After I ask the user for their address information or the address information for a Business I verify that information via the United States Postal Service. I then create a new Array with the returned information while also grabbing the Carrier Route, Country, Delivery Point Code, Check Digit, LAC, eLOT, and the Record Type Code. This will also tell me if the address is a mail serviceable address, non-Deliverable address or an address that is not existent. This Array will then pass through the GeoCoder to Grab the Latitude and Longitude on the verified address which is then stored in this array. The array is then passed back to the user and stored with their database account record.
With all of this information, then you can perform a radius distance calculation on the Lat/Long and show all Members within the X Mile Distance.
