                                AutomationException
Minimum match score setting.

Remarks

The MinimumMatchScore property specifies how well addresses have to match their most likely candidate in the reference data in order to be considered matched. A perfect match yields a score of 100. A match score between 75 and 100 can generally be considered a good match, depending upon the quality of your reference and address data. An address with no candidates with scores euqal to or greater than the minimum match score will not be matched.

The MinimumMatchScore property can have values between 0 and 100. If your application demands that addresses be located with a high level of confidence, you should specify a high value. If you want to maximize the number of addresses that can be matched and don’t mind if some addresses are potentially matched incorrectly, you can use a lower value.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:
getMinimumMatchScore in interface IGeocodingProperties
Returns:
The minimumMatchScore

IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getMinimumCandidateScore

public int getMinimumCandidateScore()
                             throws IOException,
                                    AutomationException
Minimum candidate score setting.

Remarks

Locators use the MinimumCandidateScore setting to filter the set of candidates that are returned by the IAddressCandidates::FindAddressCandidates, IAdvancedGeocoding::FindStandardizedAddressCandidates, and IAdvancedIntersectionGeocoding::FindStandardizedIntersectionCandidates methods. Only candidates with a score greater than the minimum candidate score will be returned by these methods.

The minimum candidate score for a locator can have values between 0 and 100. If the Locator is unable to come up with any likely candidates for an address that you want to geocode, you can specify a lower value so that candidates with very low scores are considered.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:
getMinimumCandidateScore in interface IGeocodingProperties
Returns:
The minimumCandidateScore
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

setMinimumCandidateScore

public void setMinimumCandidateScore(int minimumCandidateScore)
                              throws IOException,
                                     AutomationException

Parameters:
minimumCandidateScore - The minimumCandidateScore (in)
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getSpellingSensitivity

public int getSpellingSensitivity()
                           throws IOException,
                                  AutomationException
Spelling sensitivity setting.

Remarks

The SpellingSensitivity property controls how much variation the locator will allow when it searches for likely candidates in the reference data. A low value for spelling sensitivity will allow “Mane”, “Maine”, and “Man” to be treated as match candidates for “Main”. A higher value will restrict candidates to exact matches. The spelling sensitivity does not affect the match score of each candidate; it only controls how many candidates the locator considers. The locator then computes the match score of each candidate and ranks the candidates by score.

The SpellingSensitivity property can have values between 0 and 100. If you are sure that your addresses are spelled correctly, you can specify a higher value for the SpellingSensitivity. However, if you think that your addresses may contain spelling errors, then you should specify a lower value.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:
getSpellingSensitivity in interface IGeocodingProperties
Returns:
The spellingSensitivity
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.

                                   AutomationException
Spelling sensitivity setting.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Supported Platforms

Windows, Solaris, Linux

Specified by:
setSpellingSensitivity in interface IGeocodingProperties
Parameters:
spellingSensitivity - The spellingSensitivity (in)
Throws:
IOException - If there are interop problems.
AutomationException - If the ArcObject component throws an exception.

getEndOffset

public int getEndOffset()
                 throws IOException,
                        AutomationException
End offset percentage.

Remarks

Locators that use polyline features as reference data interpolate positions along reference data features for geocoded addresses. In order to prevent features that are located at the end of a reference data feature from falling on top of other features (for example, a cross street), the locator can apply a “squeeze factor”, or end offset, to the location of a geocoded address.

The EndOffset property specifies by what amount to offset geocoded locations from the end of reference data features, and is expressed as a percentage of the length of the reference feature, between 0 percent and 50 percent. An EndOffset value of 0 will not offset features from the end of the reference feature. An EndOffset value of 50 percent will locate all geocoded addresses at the middle of the reference feature.

Warning: Do not use EndOffset in combination with EndOffsetDistanceUnits from IGeocodingProperties2 because it may produce some unexpected results. Use EndOffsetDistance in combination with EndOffsetDistanceUnits instead.

Geocodes a table of addresses.

Description

The MatchTable method geocodes a table of addresses to a feature class.

Remarks

Before you geocode a table of addresses, you must first create the feature class that will contain the geocoded features. In addition to having an ObjectID and the match fields created by the locator, you can also specify fields from the address table to copy to the geocoded feature class. When you geocode a table of addresses using ArcGIS Desktop, the output feature class contains two copies of the address fields from the address table. One copy is a static copy that contains the original values of the address components from the address table. The second copy is an editable copy that you can use to modify the address when rematching the geocoded feature class. The names of the latter set of address fields are prefixed with "ARC_". In general, it is a good idea to follow this pattern when programatically geocoding a table of addresses, since the locator that you attach to the geocoded feature class will then only need to refer to the geocoded feature class itself (and not the original address table) in order to be able to rematch the addresses in the geocoded feature class.

The addressFieldNames parameter is used to specify the names of the fields in the addressTable that contain address information. The field names are contained in a comma-delimited string, in the order required by the address locator. You can get the set of address fields for the geocoding service using IAddressInputs::AddressFields. Use the IField::Required property to determine which address fields are required by the address locator. You must specify the names of the required fields in the address table. If your address table does not contain an optional address field, then do not specify a name in the this property.

The WhereClause parameter is used to restrict which addresses in the table are geocoded using a query.

The outputFeatureClass parameter is the feature class which will contain the geocoded addresses. This feature class must have an ObjectID field, and the match fields for the address locator. Use the MatchFields property to get the match fields for the address locator. In addition to the fields returned from MatchFields property, the result feature class also contains the Match_type field indicating how an adddress was matched. The field may contain the following values assigned by IAddressGeocoding::MatchTable or IAddressUI::RematchTable

If you want to copy any additional fields from the address table, or create new fields in the feature class, you must also add them to the feature class before geocoding the table.

The outputFieldNames parameter is a string containing a comma-delimited list of the names of the match fields in the feature class. The names of the fields must be specified in the same order as defined by the address locator. Use the MatchFields property to get the match fields for the address locator.

The fieldsToCopy parameter allows you to copy values from fields in the address table to the feature class. To copy a field, add a property to the PropertySet with the name of the destination field in the feature class, and with a value of the name of the field in the address table. You must add the the field to the feature class when you create it in order to copy values from the address table.

The CancelTracker parameter allows you to optionally display the progress while the geocoding service geocodes the table of addresses.

In order to be able to rematch a geocoded feature class, you must attach a locator to the geocoded feature class.

                           AutomationException
Geocodes a cursor of addresses to a RecordSet.

Description

The MatchRecordSet method is similar to the IAddressGeocoding::MatchTable method, in that the locator geocodes a set of input address records to a set of output features. Unlike the IAddressGeocoding::MatchTable method, the output features are not stored in a feature class. Using this method is useful when geocoding multiple addresses and the geocoding results do not need to be persisted in a feature class.

The addressCursor parameter is a Cursor that contains the set of addresses to geocode. As a minimum, the cursor must contain all of the address fields required by the locator, and should contain as many address fields that can be used by the locator as are available. The cursor can contain additional fields, and these fields can be copied to the resulting RecordSet.

The addressFieldNames parameter is a comma-delimited string containing the field names in the cursor that correspond to the address fields used by the locator. The names of the fields given in this parameter must be specified in the same order as the order of the address fields returned by the IAddressInputs::AddressFields property.

The outputRecordSet parameter is a reference to the RecordSet object to which the locator will add the geocoded features. The Recordset must be co-created before passing it as a parameter to the MatchRecordSet method, and as a minimum, should contain the match fields generated by the locator. Use the IAddressGeocoding::MatchFields property to get the set of match fields generated by the locator. The RecordSet can optionally contain any fields for attributes that you want to copy from the addressCursor, as specified by the fieldsToCopy parameter. Use the IRecordSetInit::CreateTable method to initialize the RecordSet with the desired set of fields.

The outputFieldNames parameter is a comma-delimited string containing the names of the fields in the outputRecordSet corresponding to the match fields generated by the locator. The names ofthe fields given in this parameter must be specified in the same order and the order of the match fields returned by the IAddressGeocoding::MatchFields property.

The fieldsToCopy parameter is a PropertySet containing the mapping of fields in the addressCursor that you wish to copy to the outputRecordSet. The names of the properties in the PropertySet are the names of the fields in the outputRecordSet that will contain the copied values, and the value of the properties are the names of the fields in the addressCursor that contain the values to copy. If you do not wish to copy attributes from the addressCursor to the ouputRecordSet, you must still co-create an empty PropertySet and pass it to the MatchRecordSet method using this parameter.

The cancelTracker parameter is an optional reference to a CancelTracker object that allows you to display the progress while the locator geocodes the addressCursor.

getStandardizeFields

                             throws IOException,
                                    AutomationException
Fields contained in a standardized address.

Remarks

All of the locators provided with ArcGIS, prior to 9.4, standardize addresses before matching them to the reference data. 9.4 locators do not use standardization for matching and therefore do not support IAdvancedGeocoding.

Sometimes, locators are not able to standardize addresses properly and thus cannot match them. If you find addresses that a locator cannot match, examining how they are standardized may help you determine why they cannot be matched. You may even be able to modify the standardization so that the addresses are standardized properly and thus improve the likelihood that the locator can match them.

The StandardizeFields property returns a Fields collection that specifies the fields that are contained by standardized addresses. The IField::Name property of each Field object in the collection is the internal field name used by the locator.

You can use fields returned by the StandardizeFields property to inspect the results of the StandardizeAddress method.

                         AutomationException
Rematches a geocoded feature class or shapefile.

Description

The RematchTable method rematches a geocoded feature class or shapefile. In general, you will use the RematchTable method on a locator that you retreived from an AttachedLocator on a geocoded feature class. You can get most of the parameters required by this function from the AttachedLocator.

The pInputTable parameter is a reference to the table that contains the address information, which is usually the geocoded feature class.

The pInputFieldNames parameter is a comma-delimited string containing the names of the fields in pInputTable that contain the address information. Usually, these fields are copied from the original address table to the geocoded feature class when the geocoded feature class is first created, and are prefixed with "ARC_". The field names in the string must be given in the same order as specified by the IAddressInputs::AddressFields property.

The InputJoinFieldName parameter is the name of the field in pInputTable that relates records in this table to records in resultTable. Usually, this parameter is not used because pInputTable and resultTable refer to the same feature class.

The resultTable parameter is the feature class that contains the geocoded addresses.

The outputFieldNames parameter is a comma-delimited string containing the names of the fields in resultTable that contain match information. You can use the IAddressGeocoding::MatchFields property to determine which fields contain the match information. The field names in the string must be given in the same order as specified by the IAddressGeocoding::MatchFields property.

The OuputJoinFieldName parameter is the name of the field in resultTable that relates records in this feature class to records in pInputTable. Usually, this parameter is not used because pInputTable and resultTable refer to the same feature class.

The WhereClause parameter is a string that contains a SQL clause specifying which records in pInputTable to rematch. To rematch all of the records, specify a blank string for this parameter.

The CancelTracker parameter is an optional parameter that you can use to specify a CancelTracker to display the progress of the rematch operation.

Remarks

All of the locators provided with ArcGIS, prior to 9.4, standardize addresses before matching them to the reference data. 9.4 locators do not use standardization for matching and therefore do not support IAdvancedGeocoding.

Sometimes, locators are not able to standardize addresses properly and thus cannot match them. If you find addresses that a locator cannot match, examining how they are standardized may help you determine why they cannot be matched. You may even be able to modify the standardization so that the addresses are standardized properly and thus improve the likelihood that the locator can match them.

The StandardizeAddress method returns a PropertySet containing the address contained in the address parameter standardized by the geocoding engine. Use the IAddressInputs::AddressFields property to determine the properties that the address parameter should contain. Use the StandardizeFields property to determine the names of the properties that the returned PropertySet contains.

The isAnIntersection is an output parameter whose value is set by the StandardizeAddresses method. If the value of the variable is set to True, then the locator interpreted the address as an intersection. If the address is an intersection, then you can use the IAdvancedIntersectionGeocoding::StandardizeIntersectionFields property to inspect the properties in the PropertySet returned by this method. Otherwise, you can use the StandardizeFields property to inspect the properties.

Name object for the place name alias table.

Remarks

Locators can use place name alias tables during the geocoding process. A place name alias table is a table that contains place names (for example, "City Hall"), and the addresses for those places. When geocoding, the locator searches the place name alias table for matches to the input address. If a match is found, then locator replaces the input address with the corresponding address from the place name alias table. In this way, you can geocode addresses by place name, without having to know the proper street address for those places.

The Table property returns a reference to a TableName object representing the place name alias table.

When using the IPlaceNameAlias interface to specify the place name alias table for a locator, only set the writeable properties immediately one after the other. Setting some of these properties, such as the Table property, can place the locator object in a state which can cause some of the readable properties and methods on the locator to raise errors until the other writeable properties on this interface are set.

Remarks

The DefaultAliasFieldNames property is an array of strings containing recognized field names for the alias field in a place name alias table. You can use the contents of this array to search through your place name alias table to determine which field contains the place name alias information. If the locator contains no default alias field names, calling this property returns an error.

When using the IPlaceNameAlias interface to specify the place name alias table for a locator, only set the writeable properties immediately one after the other. Setting some of these properties, such as the Table property, can place the locator object in a state which can cause some of the readable properties and methods on the locator to raise errors until the other writeable properties on this interface are set.
