What is Nepal in PHP Arrays - Project ?
Are you a PHP developer in Nepal ? or do you use MySQL in your projects. How many of you have easier access to the places & cities of Nepal in simpler arrays, that can be taken for reference and used.
I am currently involved in a project named Gharbeti.com (get updates here ) and got in situation where i need to use the places in Kathmandu to implement the site theme. Gharbeti.com – The Rentals Solutions In Kathmandu.
I was searching through web, searching for some arrays of places, cities, districts headquarters etc. But i was not lucky enough to find them. Instead i thought i would search for places and list them as PHP Arrays or MySQL tables. This wiki page was handy though.
There is a project named PHP Arrays in Github - I was solely inspired by this project. But, limiting myself to my country i decided to list resources related to Nepal in PHP arrays. This was how all it begun.
What is included in this project till now:
1. Places In Kathmandu - PHP Array & MySQL table
-> listing of most popular places in Kathmandu.
-places_in_kathmandu.php
-places_in_kathmandu.sql
2. 14 Zones & 75 districts of Nepal
-> 14 Zones (Anchals), 75 (Districts/Headquarters)
-14_zones_75_districts_of_nepal.php
3. 75 Districts of Nepal and their Latitude & Longitude values.
-> 75_districts_latitude_longitude.php
-> If you want to calculate Latitude Longitude values by yourself: here's a little snippet using Google Maps API that we can loop through by yourself.
$country = "Nepal";
$city = "Kathmandu";
$addEncoded = urlencode($country).",+".urlencode($city);
$geoCode = file_get_contents("http://maps.google.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=".$addEncoded."&sensor=false");
$response = json_decode($geoCode);
$lat = $response->results[0]->geometry->location->lat;
$lng = $response->results[0]->geometry->location->lng;
-> Pick up any latitude, longitude pair and try browsing in the following link format:
This link should bring out Map for Chitwan district
