Hi,<br><br>I work for Andalucia's regional gobernment [1], in Spain. We have developed an open source SOA oriented geocoder, and we are going to publish it before the end of this year.<br>It's being developed with Java, and its public API will be SOAP based. We have choosen SOAP for the geocoder's horizontal character (many departments needs basic geocoding capabilities<br>
We are planning to host it in Andalucia's repository [2], and probably in OSOR [3].<br><br>In addition to this, spanish gvSIG project will have geocoding capabilities too [4].<br><br>Both projects are open source collaborative projects, so I hope youll have all the help you need.<br>
