Postal Points and Geocoders

Geocoding is the process of adding geographic co-ordinates to your data so that you can undertake more detailed mapping or use it in spatial queries and analysis. Typically customer lists are geocoded so that precise locations can be used in home delivery routing. Alternatively the customer list might be geocoded to create market analysis mapping. You may also need to geocode your own warehouses, stores or engineer home locations so you can create catchments and territories around these points or maybe start or finish routes at these locations.

In this section you will find a wide range of point files at full address (premise), postcode or zipcode, or administrative area level. We can either do all the geocoding for you or provide an application that enables you to upload your own point file to the hosted service, which will then add and return co-ordinates automatically. If you need help choosing just call us; we’re happy to help.
