It would be amazing to be able to do this with Local Government Areas (LGAs). Is this possible, Free Map Tools??
How can I get an excel list of the combined data. i.e. town and code
this is the first digital campaign I have run so I am going to need some guidance with everything!
Hi there, cool tool! Would be great to have a way to save a map. :-) Cheers.
is there a way to import a KML file instead of manually defining the outline of the area
This is unbelievably good. Thank you!
Gaetan, sorry that's not possible.
Hello Everyone, Is there a way to do the opposite? By that I mean typing a list of suburbs and having the map that draws the point according to the suburbs I typed?
Brilliant. If users haven't discovered the obscure User Menu at the top. It allows you to save your defined map areas, export, then come back later and adjust the boundaries if needed. Icing-on-the-cake!!
Great website. I own a small courier company and this site made it extremly simple too work out my pricing for the post codes in the zones I was able to create Just Brilliant
Awesome!!! What I have been looking for and more. Would be great to do a save image option.
Hi Tony, returning the postcode is the main purpose of this page. Subsequent to that we try to list associated suburbs to the postcode. For that reason, this tool should not be considered a way to obtain suburbs in the area. The accuracy of the suburbs listed is not perfect.
Hello Great Site. I notice if I draw an area close around Example Goulburn it grabs every suburb with the 2580 postcode. Is there a way to just select the suburbs within my drawn radius? Cheers
How can I download all Australian Postcodes with Latitude and Longitude in a CSV file. Like the options you have for the UK Postal Codes?
i was wanting to find a map of postcode's 2019 & 2035 . i failed could not figure how to do it !
Hi, can i have source code of get-australian-postcodes-inside-polygon.php ? I'm learning about finding zipcode in polygon area. Thank you so much!
When I included Groote Eylandt in the defined area it omitted any post codes on the island. This caused issues and inconvenience and ended up wasting time. Could you please ensure that all post codes selected are generated including on islands. It would be much appreciated. Thanks
BM, we cannot change back. We cannot afford to on this free-to-use site. An update has been made to allow the polygon to be edited.
Should not have changed this tool, we can cannot drag the point markers into position when zoning your desired area, makes things very difficult, please change back.
Hi Miguel, thanks for the suggestion - this is an interesting one! We will look in to feasibility
