I am having the hardest time finding a way to do this. I am looking into Google Maps API, Geocoding and so on but is there an easier way to make this happen?
My goal is to input certain locations in a specific zip code in every state in the USA. If I have a location in Boston, MA let's say but someone types in a Zip Code "near" Boston, how can I match that zip code to the nearest office location of that zip code (by the zip code)... and display it back to the user for example? Maybe even not display it back to the user, just retrieve the Boston Location
(or nearest office location to the inputted zip code) in my program and use it to do something...? (The office shall be searched by zip code)...
This is a major problem and is a very urgent matter to figure out. If anyone can provide help to me and examples in code perhaps (database /
Java / etc...) I would be very appreciative. Thank you in advance for your responses to this topic. Thank you.
