Hi all,

Is there a service I can use that will return me a list of all features nearby a particular lat,lng with a particular buffer. Or if I supply a bounding box, I want all the features inside the bounding box?
At present the current findNearby seems to only return the closes result.

The findNearbyPlaceName and findNearby services can return the closest x records within a given radius :
