Fair enough - one thing I am interested in is having an API to interact
with a range of geocoder implementations. I know the [EMAIL PROTECTED]
list will remind me of OpenLS - but I am not sure if that has seen any
adoption in the wild (although it looks like their is a new version

Here is a 7 County Metro area using the PAGC geocoder in Minnesota.
Currently supports address and intersection geocoding. It has been set
up as a web service open to the public.

project definitely would be beneficial to us. Having accurate data for
small to medium-sized areas is probably not uncommon.

Hi,
I work for Andalucia's regional gobernment [1], in Spain. We have developed
an open source SOA oriented geocoder, and we are going to publish it before
the end of this year.
It's being developed with Java, and its public API will be SOAP based. We
have choosen SOAP for the geocoder's horizonta
