Use this "find-anything" functionality for your Internet applications. Use this Web service to input an address, a place name, an IP address, a US (non-cellular) phone number, or x,y coordinates. You'll receive a ranked candidate list of locations and associated coordinates. The Find service utilizes the "auto" data sources in PlaceFinder and AddressFinder, as well as multiple "POI" SpatialQuery data sources. In addition to providing geocoding services, the Find Service also provides support for businesses, points-of-interest and category searches using the magic "NEAR" to support basic "WHAT near WHERE" searches. Requires FindActivator in Framework.
