The ArcGIS World Geocoding Service finds addresses and places in all supported countries around the world in a single geocoding service. The service can find point locations of addresses, cities, landmarks, business names, and other places. The output points can be visualized on a map, inserted as stops for a route, or loaded as input for a spatial analysis.The service is available as both a geosearch and geocoding service:Geosearch Services – The primary purpose of geosearch services is to locate a feature or point of interest and then have the map zoom to that location. The result might be displayed on the map, but the result is not stored in any way for later use. Requests of this type do not require a subscription or a credit fee. Geocoding Services – The primary purpose of geocoding services is to convert an address to an x,y coordinate and append the result to an existing record in a database. Mapping is not always involved, but placing the results on a map may be part of a workflow. Batch geocoding falls into this category. Geocoding requires a subscription. An ArcGIS Online Subscription, or ArcGIS Location Platform Subscription, will provide you access to the ArcGIS World Geocoding service for batch geocoding.The service can be used to find address and places for many countries around the world. For detailed information on this service, including a data coverage map, visit the ArcGIS World Geocoding service documentation.

The growing popularity of location-based services has resulted in the enhancement of resources for producing geographical data and the development of the amount of data kept in geographic databases. The big data stored in databases is valuable for advanced geospatial analysis in several fields, including emergency responses, crime and traffic management, disease surveillance, and more. Geocoding, a crucial preprocessing step in geospatial data analysis, involves retrieving textual descriptions of locations into geographic identifiers. Nevertheless, geocoding outcomes delivered by worldwide service providers neglect various constraints related to textual data, including misspellings, abbreviations, and non-standard names. To overcome this issue, we propose a new approach for enhancing the quality of online geocoding services through the utilization of feature selection techniques. The proposed method is based on text similarity algorithms that are utilized to match the retrieved addresses. Compared to conventional geocoding outcomes, there is potential for an improvement of approximately 10% to 25% in the address-matching procedures employed in online geocoding services. The improvement was accomplished through the utilization of two feature selection methods, specifically mutual information feature selection and minimum redundancy maximum relevance, out of a total of fourteen approaches. Furthermore, the findings indicate that it is appropriate to prioritize character-based text similarity algorithms when comparing addresses retrieved from online geocoding services.

The NSW Address Location Service web service allows the user to enter an address and pinpoint the location of that address.

The NSW Address Location Service is derived from the Geocoded Urban and Rural Address System (GURAS) database.

This web service allows users to easily integrate NSW addressing information into spatial platforms and applications.

The addressing web service provides users with a unique and unambiguous identification of an address site and its location within NSW. The ability to identify the location of an address supports a wide range of business functions including: the delivery of products and services, public safety, communication and socio-economic and demographic analysis.

The GURAS database is the authoritative property addressing system for NSW.

Geoscape G-NAF is the geocoded address database for Australian businesses and governments. It’s the trusted source of geocoded address data for Australia with over 50 million contributed addresses distilled into 15.4 million G-NAF addresses. It is built and maintained by Geoscape Australia using independently examined and validated government data.

From 22 August 2022, Geoscape Australia is making G-NAF available in an additional simplified table format. G-NAF Core makes accessing geocoded addresses easier by utilising less technical effort.

G-NAF Core will be updated on a quarterly basis along with G-NAF.

Further information about contributors to G-NAF is available here.

With more than 15 million Australian physical address record, G-NAF is one of the most ubiquitous and powerful spatial datasets. The records include geocodes, which are latitude and longitude map coordinates. G-NAF does not contain personal information or details relating to individuals.

Updated versions of G-NAF are published on a quarterly basis. Previous versions are available here

Users have the option to download datasets with feature coordinates referencing either GDA94 or GDA2020 datums.

Changes in the February 2025 release

• Nationally, the February 2025 update of G-NAF shows an overall increase of 47,284 addresses (0.30%). The total number of addresses in G-NAF now stands at 15,706,733 of which 14,867,032 or 94.65% are principal.

• In the February 2025 release of G-NAF, over 300 addresses in Morra, Western Australia have been updated. About 150 addresses have changed locations and 160 properties now have street numbers instead of lot numbers. Some properties are still using lot-numbers, resulting in two addressees. This issue will be resolved in the May 2025 update of G-NAF.

• In the February release, Geoscape has re-classified geocode types of ‘Property Access Point Setback’ (PAPS) to be ‘Property Access Point’ (PAP) in South Australia where the geocode falls within a road casement as the geocode is not set back into a land parcel. This update has changed approximately 57,000 geocodes to PAP from their previous classification of PAPS, while there are some 14,000 PAPS geocodes that remain unchanged.

• Geoscape has moved product descriptions, guides and reports online to https://docs.geoscape.com.au.

Further information on G-NAF, including FAQs on the data, is available here or through Geoscape Australia’s network of partners. They provide a range of commercial products based on G-NAF, including software solutions, consultancy and support.

Additional information: On 1 October 2020, PSMA Australia Limited began trading as Geoscape Australia.

The Property Location Service Plus- Public version (PLSplus-Public) is available to anyone and used to validate Queensland addresses and property descriptions. The service can also supply location data from a geocode. The service does not offer interstate (non Queensland) address validation information. The service is free of charge and requires authentication. The service versions available are Soap and REST. To use the PLSplus-Public soap service an application utilising a file called a "WSDL" (Web Service Description Language) is required. The WSDL is an XML-based language that is used for describing the functionality offered by a web service.The WSDL description provides a machine-readable description of how the service can be called, what parameters it expects, and what data structures it returns. The wsdl is available (with service guidelines) at the online resources link of this record. The wsdl contains the required endpoint for the service. PLSplus-Public now requires authentication to use it but the wsdl can be viewed at https://information.qld.gov.au/service/Addressing/ValidationService/PLSplusPublic/soap?wsdl

REST uri's and json examples for each function are available in the online resources zip file.

Support is only available to authenticated users. Instructions to apply for username and password are contained in the Information document found at the online resources link.PLSplus-Public provides the following operations:- ValidateAddress- ValidateLotPlan- ValidateCoordinates- ParseAddress and AutoCompleteAddressA successful validation of any of the first four operations (for Queensland locations) will also return other information, such as address, lot on plan, coordinates, address type and a matching confidence level for each request.The ValidateAddress operation validates the existence of a requested address. The address elements are in a rigid structure based around Australian Addressing Standards. If an identical address is found it returns all information about the address with a matching confidence. If no exact match is found it returns possible candidate addresses (up to 500) that best match the search criteria. A global confidence is given for all candidates. The requested elements of the address is parsed by the application.The ValidateAddress operation also geocodes the address and returns the geocoded coordinates.- The only field that is mandatory in the request is the street name or property name- Street Name can consist of a "street name" or "street name" and "street type",or "street name" and "street type" and "street suffix".- McCaul- McCaul Street- McCaul Street NorthThe ValidateLotPlan operation validates the existence of a Queensland "Lot on Plan" description and also returns the addresses and geocodes (if the parcel has them) for valid parcels. The requested Lot on Plan elements must be in a rigid structure to be parsed by the application. It should be noted that not all valid property descriptions have addresses and some parcels may have multiple addresses.The ValidateCoordinates operation provides a service to validate entered Latitude/Longitude coordinates within Queensland and return the closest addresses for the requested location. Search logic begins with a radius of of up to 250 metres. If no result is found the service locates the parcel or the coordinates and returns all addresses on that parcel. The coordinates elements is a rigid structure to be parsed by the application. Coordinates (in Degree.Decmial format ) with search box limited to - North Latitude: -9.0 West Longitude: 138.0- South Latitude: -29.5 East Longitude:155.0 - Coordinates will always be a negative Latitude and a positive Longitude.The AutoCompleteAddress operation returns up to 50 valid addresses based on the input of a text string. The longer the string typed the shorter the list of candidate addresses. Any address from returned candidates can be used as input to ParseAddress operation to return further information about the address. The ParseAddress operation provides a service to parse (into address components) and validate any single line Queensland address and return any associated addresses, lot on plans, geocode and confidence for a requested address. eg. Unit 1 25B Smith Street East Earlsville Qld

Big “p” policy changes at the state and federal level are certainly important to health equity, such as eligibility for and generosity of Medicaid benefits. Medicaid expansion has significantly expanded the number of people who are eligible for Medicaid and the creation of the health insurance exchanges (Marketplace) under the Affordable Care Act created a very visible avenue through which people can learn that they are eligible. Although many applications are now submitted online, physical access to state, county, and tribal government Medicaid offices still plays a critical role in understanding eligibility, getting help in applying, and navigating required documentation for both initial enrollment and redetermination of eligibility. However, as more government functions have moved online, in-person office locations and/or staff may have been cut to reduce costs, and gentrification has shifted where minoritized, marginalized, and/or low-income populations live, it is unclear if this key local connection point between residents and Medicaid has been maintained. Our objective was to identify and geocode all Medicaid offices in the United States for pairing with other spatial data (e.g., demographics, Medicaid participation, health care use, health outcomes) to investigate policy-relevant research questions. Three coders identified Medicaid office addresses in all 50 states and the District of Columbia by searching state government websites (e.g., Department of Health and Human Services or analogous state agency) during late 2021 and early 2022 for the appropriate Medicaid agency and its office locations, which were then reviewed for accuracy by a fourth coder. Our corpus of Medicaid office addresses was then geocoded using the Census Geocoder from the US Census Bureau (https://geocoding.geo.census.gov/geocoder/) with unresolved addresses investigated and/or manually geocoded using Google Maps. The corpus was updated in August through December 2023 following the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency by a fifth coder as several states closed and/or combined offices during the pandemic. After deduplication (e.g., where multiple counties share a single office) and removal of mailing addresses (e.g., PO Boxes), our dataset includes 3,027 Medicaid office locations. 1 (December 19, 2023) – original version 2 (January 25, 2024) – added related publication (Data in Brief), corrected two records that were missing negative signs in longitude 3 (February 6, 2024) – corrected latitude and longitude for one office (1340 State Route 9, Lake George, NY 12845) 4 (March 4, 2024) – added one office for Vermont after contacting relevant state agency (280 State Road, Waterbury, VT 05671)

Address ranges describe a label given to a unique collection of addresses that fall along a road or path. Address ranges provide a way of locating homes and businesses based on their street addresses when no other location information is available.Using a house number, street name, street side and ZIP code, address ranges can locate the address to the geographic area associated to that side of the street. Once geocoded, the U.S. Census Bureau can assign the address to a field assignment area or tabulate the data for that address. In addition, academics, researchers, professionals and government agencies outside of the Census Bureau use MAF/TIGER address ranges to transform tabular addresses into geographical datasets for decision-making and analytical purposes.Address ranges must be unique to geocode addresses to the correct location and avoid geocoding conflicts. Multiple elements in MAF/TIGER are required to make an address range unique including street names, address house numbers and street feature geometries, such as street centerlines. The address range data model is designed to maximize geocoding matches with their correct geographic areas in MAF/TIGER by allowing an unlimited number of address range-to-street feature relationships.The Census Bureau’s Geography Division devises numerous operations and processes to build and maintain high quality address ranges so that:Address ranges accurately describe the location of addresses on the ground.Address All possible city-style addresses are geocoded.Address ranges can handle all known address and street name variations.Address ranges conform with current U.S. Postal Service ZIP codes.Address ranges are reliable and free from conflicts.Automated software continually updates existing address ranges, builds new address ranges and corrects errors. An automated operation links address location points and tabular address information to street feature edges with matching street names in the same block to build and modify address ranges.Many business rules and legal value checks ensure quality address range data in MAF/TIGER. For example, business rules prevent adding or modifying address ranges that overlap another house number range with the same street name and ZIP code. Legal value checks verify that address ranges include mandatory attribute information, valid data types and valid character values.Some of the TIGER/Line products for the public include address ranges and give the public the ability to geocode addresses to MAF/TIGER address ranges for the user’s own purpose. The address range files are available for the nation, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Island Areas at the county level. TIGER/Line files require geographic information system (GIS) software to use.The Census Bureau Geocoder Service is a web service provided to the public. The service accepts up to 1,000 input addresses and, based on Census address ranges, returns the interpolated geocoded location and census geographies. Users can access the service a web interface or a representational state transfer (REST) application program interface (API) web service.Download: https://www2.census.gov/geo/tiger/TGRGDB24/tlgdb_2024_a_us_addr.gdb.zip
