Hi Charles, <br>
<br>
it's the same thing. You can search any element that you would
search in Google Maps: cities, addresses, monuments, museums,
churches... <br>
<br>
There are several geocoders that you can use. <br>
<br>
Kind regards, <br>
Mario <br>

<p>Hi,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The only fields in the data is the province and the township
name. I do not have the normal fields of address and street
name. How can I geocode this?</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Kind Regards</p>

Hi Charles, <br>
<br>
you can use the geocoding tool in gvSIG: <br>

gvSIG is open source and you can download it from <a

<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I have a list of townships in South Africa. I was wondering
if one can help me to geocode these townships in order to
be used in GIS..</p>
