As yes, and the link may be a good idea: http://www.worldtimeengine.com/ In the future, I plan to open out an API to other developers, free for use of course. On 9/29/07, Rich Tibbett <rich.tibbett@gmail.com> wrote:
Hello,
I'd like to let you know that I have been working on a small project to map country borders to the information provided by the tz database. I thought it might be quite interesting, as you can effectively enter any co-ordinate points on earth and it will return the time for the given location. Additionally you can enter any country, town, city, street name or zip code and it will give you the time, thanks to those clever guys over at Google.
Currently, I've evaluated the accuracy to be 96%, with an accuracy at timezone borders to within 3 miles. Do you think that this is an acceptable starting point for launch? Those last few percent are proving very difficult indeed!
I will be continuing this project, as I think it may be useful to someone, somewhere in the future. However, I would appreciate your feedback and input should you have any comments or questions or thoughts at this stage.
Many Thanks,
Richard
