Datasets available:

MongoDB
-------

There are two datasets for MongoDB, both are in 7Zip compression format: http://www.7-zip.org/

OS-Code-Point-Open-MongoDB-Dump.7z - use mongorestore.exe to import

>db.PostCodes.ensureIndex({ PostCode : 1 })
>db.PostCodes.ensureIndex({ loc : '2d' })

You can then query using the following commands:

>db.PostCodes.find({ PostCode: 'AB101AA' })
>db.PostCodes.find({ loc : [-2.096647896, 57.14823188] })
