Found some postal code missing? Got an idea for a feature? Let me know!
F.A.Q.
What is this?
This is project is solving the problem of postalcode lookups. There are many services that do a great job geocoding street or city names. Something that is missing is good postal-code level geocoding. Some industries heavily rely on partial postalcodes to manage their business. Yet, there are no possibilities to look-up these postal codes and geocode them.
What are your data sources?
Currently, the postalcodes and coordinates are based on the geonames.org database.
Why are you doing this?
It is fun and I like to learn new things. This is a great learning experience.
Is it for free, free?
For now yes, let's see about that once the first AWS bills hit 🤷♂️
How did you build this?
This projects uses Elastic Search, FastAPI and faasd under the hood. The frontend is deployed on Netlify and is styled using the amazing MVP.css.
