New Zealand Postcode Database

August 9th, 2006 Leave a comment Go to comments

Due to the lack of data from NZ Post, I’ve created this mysql database from the PDF on the NZ Post website.

All efforts have been made to ensure that there are no errors, but there are no guarantees, if you need 100% accurate data please buy NZ Post’s PAF data.

Update: New Zealand Postcode Database version 2

Version 1:

nzpostcodes.sql.gz (467KB)
nzpostcodes.sql.bz2 (313KB)

    It contains every region, but unfortunately I haven’t been able to list the regions in the database as regions change depending on what source you look at.

    It’s on the list of things to do.

    Hi, we are looking for a system to identify the general area of the country the post code is from and calculate the distance between NZ post codes. Will your info do this or can you suggest where we might be able to get this?

    Any progress on the districts (esp councils) correlation with postcodes? It would be very useful. . .

    Hi
    I just saw this blog and wondered if you could help me.
    I am looking to check distances between NZ postcodes so that I can check how many business are in one area ( and within certain distance from each postcode )

    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated

    Thanks John
