Following on from my previous post on loading the Ordnance Survey Code-Point data for GB post codes to SQL Server and converting to the GEOGRAPHY data type, I've made a few tweaks to the importer app that is up on GitHub:
- The schema of the SQL Server table generated has changed - postcodes are now split into 2 distinct columns: OutwardCode and InwardCode
- The importer now calculates a basic average for each postcode district (e.g. AB12, aka the OutwardCode) and sector (e.g. AB12 3). This provides a central geographical position for each district/sector allowing less granular usage.
