The "Address geocoding" shipping plugin allows you to provide shipping methods limited by the distance between a point and the geolocated shipping address of the customer
Features
Create shipping methods with the Google Maps JavaScript API
allowing you to easily enter an address and get back the latitude
and longitude of that address. And define an allowed distance from
that point in the shipping method so that it won't be available
outside of that area
When an address is created or modified, the address will be
geolocated to get its latitude and longitude thanks to the Google
Geocoding API
During the checkout, only the shipping methods for which the
distance between the shipping address of the customer and the
address in the shipping method is lower than the distance
configured in the shipping method will appear.
