my geographic coordinate validation routines involved passing data between BIEN2 (MySQL) to ArcGIS (for spatial joins) to PostGIS (for spatial overlay via geo-aware SQL scripts, and back to BIEN2. It wasn't a pretty system but it was the only way to work around the limitations we had for doing true spatial work in MySQL. If BIEN3 was implemented in PostgreSQL (with PostGIS extensions), I think we could implement the whole workflow in a series of SQL scripts.

As a quick but hopefully sufficient way of transferring the geoscrub results back to you, I dumped my geoscrub output table out to CSV and stuck it on vegbiendev at /tmp/public.2012-11-04-07-34-10.r5984.geoscrub_output.csv.
