This sample demonstrates the "find a place" functionality available in Place Finder Web Service and is provided only to sample ArcWeb Services.

NOTE: You can use Place Finder Sample Web Service freely in low-volume, noncommercial Internet applications. This sample does not have the full functionality of Place Finder Web Service. For example, there is only one valid data source (ArcWeb:ESRI.Gazetteer.World). You may not resell this service as is or as part of a custom application. You must use Place Finder Web Service for high-volume (more than 5,000 requests a day) or commercial use.
