NAME

Geo::Coder::US::Codes - Useful abbreviation and code maps for Geo::Coder::US

DESCRIPTION

This module contains some hashes mapping various geographic identifiers to their canonical equivalents. None of them are exported. You probably won't need to care about this module.

VARIABLES

%Directional

Maps directional names (north, northeast, etc.) to abbreviations (N, NE, etc.).

%Direction_Code

Maps directional abbreviations to directional names.

%Street_Type

Maps lowercased USPS standard street types to their canonical postal abbreviations as found in TIGER/Line. See eg/get_street_abbrev.pl in the distrbution for how this map was generated.

%State_Code

Maps lowercased US state and territory names to their canonical two-letter postal abbreviations. See eg/get_state_abbrev.pl in the distrbution for how this map was generated.

%State_FIPS

Maps two-digit FIPS-55 US state and territory codes (including the leading zero!) as found in TIGER/Line to the state's canonical two-letter postal abbreviation. See eg/get_state_fips.pl in the distrbution for how this map was generated. Yes, I know the FIPS data also has the state names. Oops.
