Hi ,
I m working on a web application where right now I m using "Map point Service" and I m looking for a better service for Maps.
In my application I need to show list of providers according to their specialty within a certain area.
Here is the process I m using with map point.
I fwd the address to mappoint service like this
Dim myAddress As New net.mappoint.service.Address
myAddress.AddressLine = Address
myAddress.PrimaryCity = City
myAddress.SecondaryCity = ""
myAddress.Subdivision = State
myAddress.PostalCode = ZipCode
myAddress.CountryRegion = "USA"
and also send Radius and speciality(speciality is a category to filter records) then the service search for the provider according to above condition in the specified database which is already uploaded to the mappoint service.
Mappoint in turn return me a list of records with all the fields values loaded in the database.
But for this we need to load data to mappoint database each day and this sometime creating problems in turn effected the map data.
So can I use a better technique of Think geo which will show Records with a specified range of address for a particular category
I have seen Think geo Application in which they pass path of the file which contain all cities of world and they just show those cities on the map, i want to pass a paricular address and in return need to show address surrounded that address with in a specified radius.
Please help me on this, Reply soon.
Thanks & Regards
