Search Radius added to CSVSplitter

 

I've updated the CSV Splitter app to include a Search by Radius function.

1) Select a file, or for this function you can select as many files as you want and have it merge them all into one CSV file.

2) Choose an output file name

3) Enter a Latitude and Longitude to search around.
To enter degrees,minutes, and seconds, type each with a single quote between them. for instance to enter:

39deg, 12min, 38sec ..enter 39'12'38

This function will only function properly in the Western Hemisphere because I tried to build in some goof-proofing, so the longitude should be negative.

This is one site that can take City or ZIP and give you a Lat/Lon from it:

http://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/gazetteer

4) Enter a search radius and select miles, kilometers, or nautical miles.

5) Hit [Go]. The file returned will contain all POIs from all the selected input files that fall within the radius (using WGS84 Ellipsoid) of the selected Lat/Lon.

Sounds good

Will have to give it a try. This site is truly amazing, with all the talent that is on the site and if someone can figure out what to do with a gpsr or what to do with a poi file you guys will figure something out to make it better.
