Hi, when a new address is created and sent to Google to geocode it, Google return to Alliance the Lattitude / Longitude for this address. But does Google return also the geocode level of precision ? For Example for a town you sent the address 123 Church hill road,  but in this town the number 123 doesn’t exist, and the Lat/Long returned by Google if for the nearest number for instance 115.

Thanks by advance

Hi Philippe,
Google has a page you can use to play around with the return values so you should be able to figure it out by entering your sample data in there (I tried with other cities and state combinations and some of those have churchill road and other partial matches):

Hi @Reid Gilbert  

when we geocode in Alliance , do we store in the Alliance database the data of the geocoder result:  partial_match , location_type  (rooftp, range_interlopated, approximate, geometric_center)

or Could it possible to store in new fields ?

 

Thanks and Regards

Hi @athobie 
You’d need to run that by one of the Alliance application developers (if it’s not stored in the standard database then it may need to be done as a small customization).
Thanks,
Reid
