stadtplandienst
Stadtplandienst Search. Stadtplandienst is a map service for Germany. Three parameters are recognized, "plz" (Postleitzahl = zip code), "city", and "str". Examples: stadtplandienst -city münchen stadtplandienst -city bremen -str Am Markt 21 stadtplandienst -plz 28195 The zip code always takes precedence, combining it with other parameters is thus futile. City and street names have to be provided in German (e.g. "München" instead of "munich").
