I'm
not sure if this will help but many of the search engines (e.g., mapquest) use
the geographical data base supplied by Navteq (http://www.navteq.com). I'm not sure
whether Navteq natively supplies a service for that kind of information or not,
but that might be a place to start the investigation.

Subject: OT: within 10 milesI searched web, but did not find useful info.Goal: Given a zip code or an address, search the database to find all businesses that are within 10 miles.To be concrete, two things:1. How to calculate distance between two addresses(or two zip codes)?2. How to list all the zip codes that are within 10 miles from a given zip code?Is there such a service out there? But going through a service would be too slow.Thank you very much for any hints.
