I need to get the lat lon for a specific postal code.
What I do now is get the nearby postalcode for the specific postal code and get then get their lat/lon values.
In Java:

Code:

 PostalCodeSearchCriteria postalCodeSearchCriteria = new PostalCodeSearchCriteria();
 	postalCodeSearchCriteria.setPostalCode(postcode);
 	java.util.List<PostalCode> postalCodes =  WebService.findNearbyPostalCodes(postalCodeSearchCriteria);
 for(PostalCode p : postalCodes){
 if(p.getPostalCode().equals(postcode)){
 	system.out.println("Match!:" + p.getLatitude() + " " + p.getLongitude());
 	}
 }

There has to be a way to get Lat Lon directly from one specific postalcode!

Thanks in advance!

Did you look at postalCodeLookup and postalCodeSearch webservices ?
