A parser for USDA plant hardiness zones. That data is provided in bulk by [the PRISM Climate Group at Oregon State University](http://www.prism.oregonstate.edu/projects/plant_hardiness_zones.php). This combines the four bulk files with ZIP location data, and creates a JSON file for each ZIP, functioning as a static API.

Note that _not every U.S. ZIP code is part of this dataset._ The source data, provided by PRISM, simply does not include every ZIP.
Note that _not every U.S. ZIP code is part of this dataset._ The PHZ source data, provided by PRISM, does not include every ZIP, and there is no complete list of the location of all ZIP codes in the PHZ source data.

The resulting data is used to create an API at phzmapi.org, in format `ZIPCODE.json`, e.g. [`https://phzmapi.org/20001.json`](https://phzmapi.org/20001.json).
