Research using ZipCodes for location information #7

Open srsexton94 opened 4 years ago

srsexton94 commented 4 years ago

I want to be able to tell the distance between locations in zip codes and ideally toggle between zip code and city/state info

Possible 3rd party API to use: RedLine Zipcode

srsexton94 commented 4 years ago

Will this allow users to write their city/state/country in text and then still input a zip code?

Need to trouble shoot for resources that don't have a specific location/cover wide area (just make zip not required? or find some way to designate a range?

Some resources provided are from the UK - need to contend with UK postal code vs. US zip code Perhaps need to research location codes from other parts of the world?
