Guest ighorsey Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 Hi Here in the UK, we have a website www.streetmap.co.uk that allows you to get co-ordinates for locations that you can copy and paste into EasyGPS or GPSUtility. When I get called out on a job, I can go to Streetmap, put in the customers postcode (zip-code) and get a co-ordinate for their location. I can then load this into my unit, and off I go. I am going snowboarding to France next month, and I want to get to information about the local points of interest. Does anyone know of any websites that will allow me to do the same but for France rather than the UK? Cheers Ian Quote Link to comment
Guest DisQuoi Posted January 18, 2002 Share Posted January 18, 2002 I tested the following site for a couple of cities in France. It gives the location only of cities only to the nearest minute (~1 km). This is not what you are looking for, of course ... no street-level detail ... http://www.getty.edu/research/tools/vocabulary/tgn/ But for anyone in the US that is interested, the following webiste for getting lat/long for US addresses: http://geocode.com/eagle.html Here are a couple I have found that may help you but I haven't figured them out entirely: http://gnpswww.nima.mil/geonames/GNS/ Quote Link to comment
