Geocoding

Hi all,

What behavior / component / plugin is everyone using for geocoding these days?

I want to use either Yahoo or Google Maps and I've found a bakery article from Nate in 2007 but can't find the actual behavior anywhere:

http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/nate/2007/04/13/geocoding-in-cakephp

As that was 5 years ago I guess there might be a more evolved solution now anyway?

THanks,

Alex

Re: Geocoding

I still use google maps.

but there the only evolution is going to "not free anymore" - so for high traffic sites this might not be the most suitable approach (or it might again if the money is not the issue).

Re: Geocoding

When is says:

2. Add the following to your model:

public $useDbConfig = 'geoNames';
public $useTable = false;

Does that go in my Locations controller or do I make another controller?
If it goes into my Locations Controller, will the line "public
$useTable = false;" keep my model from accessing its DB table?

Thanks.

Re: Geocoding

I meant my Location Model, not Controller.
