Overview: Running from the data provided by Pocket Postcode you now have the benefit of a digital road atlas as well as providing Latitude & Longitude co-ordinates and grid-references from postcoded addresses, enabling the interchange of data between GIS systems and postal address systems.
There are increasing numbers of people on the move who benefit from using a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA). However to develop the small Pocket PC, the traditional keyboard has been replaced with the stylus and touch sensitive screen, which is more tedious and invariably prone to errors. However by integrating Pocket Postcode Plotter this will allow PDA's to be utilised more efficiently, speeding up work-flow by saving up to 80% of keystrokes, while entering address data.
AFD Pocket Postcode Plotter uses Royal Mail PAF® data to offer every handheld computer user fast, affordable and easy access to, address data – from just the postcode. The stand-alone Pocket Postcode Plotter program can be used for simple look-ups, searches, or to insert data into other programs or you can use our powerful Dynamic Link Libraries to get the full functionality of AFD Postcode in your own application.
