No problem! I just had a worker coop near me go under and they had a lot of trouble contacting old members about equity. So rigorous record keeping is probably one key factor. There is also a really amazing documentary about the grocery consumer coops in the twin cities. I believe it's called Co-op Wars, I think it's on PBS. It documents many of the difficulties of starting coops and there are probably some good lessons to be learned in there. There is also Living the Revolution about housing coops in Madison WI. Also many good community lessons in there. It's only found on youtube as far as I can tell.

What kind of coop? Worker, housing, or consumer?
I haven't seen osm2gmaps mentioned yet. It by default only uses geo chords but you have the ability to add an api key for what3words that allows you to search addresses like you want.
