Capturing Address Metadata
DPID GPS Meshblock Metadata RegionDemonstrates capturing several of our metadata attributes, and saving them into hidden fields on a form. In this example, we capture GPS coordinates, the meshblock ID, the NZ Post DPID field and also the name of the region. The example of the AddressFinder widget showcases some of the extra data that can be collected along side each Address. The addresses GPS location, meshblock ID and DPID are all collected in this example.
