Not sure if QGIS has a plugin to toss addresses to it though. <br>

<div>I am seeking a GIS app to use for a disaster preparedness

apps seems to be gecoding street addresses to coordinates
(lat/log, UTM, etc). Many apps seem to wind up referencing
the geocoding services of google or yahoo instead of doing the
work locally.</div>

files (TIGER, etc), can QGIS be used to geocode street
addresses without Internet access?</div>
