LDS Maps API?
So, I was recently called as the Ward Statistical Clerk. I would like to make my job easier by automatically generating certain aspects of the reports. I am only wondering if there is an already existing API in place for LDS Maps. If there is, it will make my job all that much easier. Any insights?

There is a maps API, more specifically one or more web services linked to the LDS maps application. But like other web APIs, these tools are available only to developers working on church-approved projects.
Some data from the LDS maps applications is downloadable, however. The geocoded members addresses are downloadable as CSV files, and the unit boundaries are downloadable as KMZ files.

I am doing something similar but as a capstone project for my masters. What is the direction you ended up going?
