- Someone here was recently looking for a comprehensive Latitude,
- Longitude, City, State, Zipcode database.
- Check out the following page
-
- http://www.coast.net/cgi-bin/WebZip?path=/SimTel/win3/database/fllatlon.zip
-
- This is a very extensive SAMPLE Zipcode, Latitude and Longitude
- of 68,869 US Cities. The file is in ASCII table and dbf formats.
-
- The Latitude and Longitude files in the whole US listing of US cities
- and towns totals 68,869.
-
- It includes many of the small villages, hamlets and variant spellings of
- cities that are not usually listed in your average zipcode/geographic
- database. The US listing of 5 digit Zipcodes with City and State totals
- 45,066.
-
- Select the README file after selecting this URL
- for more details. Then you can download the sample file of the State of
- Florida. As it took quite a bit of time to crossreference and check the
- whole US listing, I'm asking a 'programmers' donation of $50 US.
