Sep 2, 2017 at 7:16 comment added Raphael @rhermans Oh, I'm sorry I wasn't clear: I didn't expect anybody to program the perfect solution for me. I expect to be able to use any API following your example; and if not, I'd open a new question. I consider this question dealt with; I'll wait another day or two and then accept an answer. Thanks for your help!
Sep 2, 2017 at 7:12 comment added rhermans @Raphael I second the comments by JM, if you provide the API, we can do the Mathematica coding. Choosing is also a task, and not a particularly easy.
Sep 2, 2017 at 7:07 comment added rhermans @Raphael We know Google, still, choosing which of all available hits is worthy of consideration for an answer or a new question is a task you can't expect us to do here.
Sep 2, 2017 at 6:59 comment added Raphael FWIW, there seem to be multiple offerings of both free data sets and APIs.
Sep 2, 2017 at 6:52 comment added Raphael @J.M. Sure, and this answer explains how. I upvoted it, but I felt I needed to leave a "beware caveat" comment for later visitors.
Sep 2, 2017 at 2:51 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation @Raphael, if you can find a service that knows German ZIP codes and has an API, we should be able to figure out how to interface Mathematica with it.
Sep 1, 2017 at 16:58 comment added Raphael Thanks! This seems to work, however the choice of service is probably less than ideal for Germany. As far as I can tell from comparing the images I get, the two versions mostly agree (some markers move a little this way or that) but zippopotam.us does not know a fair number of ZIP codes.

Sep 1, 2017 at 15:53 comment added J. M.'s missing motivation I like seeing API-based solutions a lot... :D
