rb.postcode.location

Result of mapping a post code to a physical location

Elements

The rb.postcode.location struct has 7 elements:

Name Type/Value Range/Length Description
eastingsnumber  Optional. Metres East from the logical origin for this domain. Some domains may not have grid references. The US ZIP code database for example specifies location directly in longitude/latitude pairs.
northingsnumber  Optional. Metres North from the logical origin for this domain
longitudenumber  Required. Longitude in degrees
latitudenumber  Required. Latitude in degrees
postcodestring  Required. Post code
domainstring  Required. Post code domain - eg UK or US
sourcestring  Required. Source of postcode data - used to identify where the data came from. In most cases there would probably be a 1-1 mapping between domain and source. There are exceptions. The UK domain, for example, pulls data from the Great Britain and the Northern Ireland ordnance survey organisations. They share the same post-code address space but each has a different grid system and logical origin.
