Here’s a query for combing all 3 tables in to one table:

INSERT INTO customer_nz_postcodes
( postcode, suburb, town, rural_d )

select postcode, suburb, area as town, null as rd FROM suburbs
UNION
select postcode, NULL as suburb, town, rd FROM rural
UNION
Select postcode, lobby as suburb, city as twon, null as rd FROM boxes

(tip: Disclaimer: I’m not from NZ, is it reasonable to generalize like this?)

that trick is exactly what I’m looking for ! the only thing, is that I was unable to make it work.

I’m replacing this expression :

with digits of the airport express IP address.

Is there an other setting to apply ?

Thanks

You can look up and download NZ Postcodes (in the new format) with city and very precise latitude and longitude data.

Hi,

Does anybody have a csv file of NZ postcodes to regions that they could send me. Would be greatly appreciated. I tried looking at the link http://www.srmiller.net/nzpostcode/nzpostcode2csv.zip but it doesn’t seem to work anymore

[...] not handle zip files larger than 2GBs. I was able to upgrade unzip on RHEL to version 6.0.1, thanks Noodle. I loaded the latest Install Patch Utilities on Solaris (rev -80) to correct the issue with zip. [...]

I’ve done a bit of playing and

A) converted it into Postgresql sql
B) converted the addrinfo column into a streetMin and streetMax column

if anyone wants it — the current streetMin and streetMax are in Postgres format, but its fairly trivial for me to turn them into CSV or mysql if the desire was there

Comment on Online Banking by Owen

When internet banking started it was pretty instant, then I think it was dialled back because of fraud (much more difficult if there’s a 3 day gap between transfer and credit). Not sure of this: would be nice to hear from someone in banking.

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
