What
====

[](#what)

This package contains functionality to parse Norwegian address information from the Norwegian mapping authority.

How
===

[](#how)

**Install the package**

```
composer require "phaza/norwegian-address-data"

```

**Use the parser**

Bare SOSI file

```
$sosiparser = new SOSIParser(
	function ( Address $address ) {
		//Do something with $address here
	}
);

$handle = fopen( 'somefile.sos', 'r' );
$sosiparser->parse( $handle );
fclose( $handle );
```

Zip file from the Norwegian mapping authority

```
$sosiparser = new SOSIParser(
	function ( Address $address ) {
		//Do something with $address here
	}
);

$file = new SplFileInfo('Vegdata_Norge_Adresser_UTM33_SOSI.zip');

$unwrapper = new ZipUnwrapper( $file, $sosiparser );
$unwrapper->parse();
```

**Description of the address objects**

The address object comes in two flavours. One for addresses with a street and number (StreetAddress), and one for those which doesn't have a street and number (CadastreAddress).

```
common attributes:
$id;              // Unique id of this point within this municipality
$municipality_id; // The id of the municipality this address is contained within
$zip_code_id;     // The zip code id
$zip_code_name;   // The zip code name
$display;         // The display version of this address
getCoords()       // Coordinates for this point, returned as an Utm object with northing and easting.

CadastreAddress:
$gnr; // land parcel number, unique within a municipality
$bnr; // property number, unique within a $gnr
$fnr; // rental property number, unique within a $bnr
$unr; // sub division number, unique within a $fnr

StreetAddress:
$street_name;
$street_id;   // unique within a municipality
$number;
$letter;

```
