Over the last few days we have implemented FedEx Zone calculations for Canadian and US FedEx accounts.  The system is now capable of identifying the pricing zone for any shipment, whether domestic or international.

Of particular interest was FedEx US Domestic zones which required over 150,000 records to be processed.  Ultimately all the data was sourced from the FedEx 2015 Service Guides for US and Canada through the creation of custom text processing software.  Data was copied out of the brochure and processed into in-memory data structures that will now form part of the FedEx module.
