Working Example: how to add a postcode as a geospatial area.
We will step through adding a postcode getting the data from: http://mapit.openlocal.org.au
Once this has been added we will be able to search within this area using the advanced search feature option "within:" and we will also be able to view it on the map.
For each state try the following link
- VIC http://mapit.openlocal.org.au/areas/LVI.html
- QLD http://mapit.openlocal.org.au/areas/LQL.html
- NSW http://mapit.openlocal.org.au/areas/LNS.html
- SA http://mapit.openlocal.org.au/areas/LSA.html
- WA http://mapit.openlocal.org.au/areas/LWA.html
For this example, I will get the pocode data for 3072 by doing the following
- Select the "Darebin" local government from the Victorian area,
- Then select "Overlapping this area" from the "Areas" section on the page
- Then select "pc3072"
- on the next page select "WKT" under the "Geometry" section
