Hi Nigel,

My name is Brian Hinton, District 6 realignment chair. We spoke a few weeks ago on your blog. I am new to geocoding and was impressed by its capabilities for locating clubs. My District trio also seemed to like the idea of the online map for District 6.

I have analyzed all the District 6 clubs (I did this manually to make sure the info properly identified the club locations) and have found a few that, although their addresses converged, were located on the District 6 map improperly. I believe I have correctly located all the clubs but have not found how to submit the information. There are approximately 275 or so clubs in District 6 and I have all the geocode information in a spreadsheet. How do I submit the information? Is there a way I can contact you offline?

Thanks!

Hi Nigel,
What an awesome tool!!! Is the map manually or automatically updated as new clubs charter or are realigned? It appears this tool will save me some time as District 6 realignment chair. I am wondering how often it is updated and how to make changes? I noticed a few clubs missing and incorrectly listed on the map.
Thanks, Brian

Webmaster's reply : Hi Brian,

Most of the information you're asking can be found by reading the blog. Basically we update information once a day. If a club moves area, division or district, it'll be picked up by the scripts. All data comes from WHQ so each club must update their information for us to pick it up. The only exception is the geocoding for each club.

If you wish to change the clubs location, follow the instructions at and locate the club on the map and submit the new location. Once verified it'll be updated.

We also have a realignment tool that lets you shift clubs around in a "sandbox" type map and update the area and division.

Regards
Nigel

district 61 has a bubble off in the Atlantic.....
strict=61&division=B

BTW, all clubs in the district have been geocoded - see the subsidiary pages of

tOM

Webmaster's reply : If a club is in the atlantic, it probably means they're at 0 lag & 0 lon. Basically, there is no geocoding for them.

If you would like to submit a file containing all the geocoding for your district, I'd be happy to import it and mark all clubs as verified. You can submit either an xls spreadsheet or a csv file with club number, longitude and latitude. That's all the information I need.

Just for interest, Where is the New member list that Sharon Hyman referred to?

I also hope that Sharon is able to her friend again.

Webmaster's reply : Send me another email offline about this and we'll try and sort it out.

Thanks.
