Long overdue

After much work last night....I have good news. After uploading a .csv file of Zip Codes into my application, I have results.

I did not finish the list but after allowing my app to do the work it spit out the result file. Over 12k records were in the output.

Here is the file (You need Google Earth to open)

Enjoy, I am 100% open to ideas. The format is very flexible.

Mr. GreenJeans

p.s. the file is international and not limited to the US. I am coding out a way to categorize by country/State/Zip. More to come

On the subject of pennies...

For the last several months I have been working on a project that was inspired by God...lol before you laugh...let me explain.

I was driving home one night...and it hit me...I wanted to map out all the people that ever had interaction with churches. Be it church members or just people that got a mailing every now and again. I had no care how large the church was...needless to say i embarked on a mission.
As I spent time coding (yes i hand coded the entire application) i realized that this could be of use to the commercial sector. Every business should be able to see customers on a map instead of a list. Or real estate could map out properties... Advertising agencies could use the maps to effectively place ads for a company. (why would a company want to advertise where its customers are? they should advertise in new areas to gain new customers)

Either way...I am interested in allowing churches use of this service for free while charging a fee per record to businesses...right now I am looking for Alpha testers of this service...I am not doing this full time but am interested in pursuing that avenue.

Maybe I should have mentioned what my application is capable of...

Specs:

• Ability to Geocode and auto correct an address
• I check each address up to 3 times
• Fill in missing data (using only street address and zip i can fill in City State ect)
• Map data onto several map formats
• Google Earth (non-profit)
• Google Earth Enterprise (Commercial)
• Most major Gps units
• CSV format for other uses
• Speed:
• 1800-3000 addresses per hour
• Using 5 separate processors
• Up to 50k addresses per day (i can go higher with prior warning)
• Over 3 million characters of output code per minute
• Google Earth ouput sorts the addresses by state and by state/zip code
• .kmz output allows images to be attached to placemarks
• html descriptions (developmental feature)

If your interested I have a test output of the 40k united states zip codes running as i type...

Started at:10:40:10 96
Currently:11:18:02 15 pm
Records Processed thus far: 1841

I cannot assure the results, I use a service from Google to process the addresses. However I assign each address a unique 36 character Id. If there is an issue with that address I can change it and rerun the output.

Im am interested in Alpha users, I assure you your data is safe. Please contact me if you have any questions.

New Project Planning

I just spent 40 mins or so working on planning the requirements for my new application. I am going to build an inventory management system, this will interface with my plan for a Management Informations System (MIS). And they said i would need to go to college for this...HA I am not in debt and still building it.

More to come as I hash out the data constraints...

Mr. GreenJeans

Here goes nothing...

I am embarking on a journey...I have a desire to manage my own business. I have so many ideas that i want to follow. So many things to research...I am not looking to be rich. But i want to find a way to support the family i desire.

I hope to use this blog to track progress...and announce new ideas. I plan to write in this blog the plans and post proof of my progress. I dont expect this to be a perfect blog...but it will be my thoughts and such.

Well i should get back to my research now lol...i'm avoiding it...
