Canadian postal codes

 

If this idea is accepted, it may be the most ambitious project that POI Factory has ever seen. I'd like to see several GPX POI files put together containing Canadian postal code information, with each POI associated with a province, city and address/PO box range. There would be separate files for each active combination of the first three characters of the postal code (a "Forward Sortation Area"). Each entry would look something like this, with the square brackets [] replaced with angle brackets <>.

Street address range:

[wpt lat="49.687007" lon="-125.019740"]
[name]V9N 1A1[/name]
[extensions][gpxx:WaypointExtension]
[gpxx:Address]
[gpxx:StreetAddress]1330-1870 (even) Robert Lang Dr[/gpxx:StreetAddress]
[gpxx:City]Courtenay[/gpxx:City]
[gpxx:State]BC[/gpxx:State]
[/gpxx:Address]
[/gpxx:WaypointExtension][/extensions]
[/wpt]

PO box range:

[wpt lat="49.280455" lon="-123.114578"]
[name]V6B 4A4[/name]
[extensions][gpxx:WaypointExtension]
[gpxx:Address]
[gpxx:StreetAddress]PO Box 4701-4850 Stn Terminal[/gpxx:StreetAddress] [gpxx:City]Vancouver[/gpxx:City]
[gpxx:State]BC[/gpxx:State]
