Custom Preferences
New Zealand supports the following custom preferences and output fields.
| Preference | Description |
|---|---|
| USE_ADDRESS_POINT_INTERPOLATION | When set to true, enables address point interpolation. Default = false.
Supported only in forward geocoding. Note: The address point interpolation feature
requires that you have a point-level geocoding dataset installed. |
| CALCULATE_CENTERLINE_ PROJECTION_OF_POINT | Computes the closest point on the
street from the parcel point. Default = disabled.
Note: This feature requires that a point-level
geocoding dataset is installed.
|
| USE_CENTERLINE_OFFSET | When set to true, calculates the centerline offset for point addresses. Default =
false. Supported only in forward geocoding. Note: The centerline feature requires
that you have a point-level geocoding dataset installed. A centerline point
match is indicated by a result code beginning with SC. |
| CENTERLINE_OFFSET | When USE_CENTERLINE_OFFSET is enabled, this specifies the distance to offset the point from centerline. Default = 0. Supported in forward geocoding only. |
| CENTERLINE_OFFSET_UNITS | When USE_CENTERLINE_OFFSET is enabled, this specifies the unit type for the centerline offset. Valid values = feet, meters. Default = meters. Supported only in forward geocoding. |
| ReturnOriginalCoordinates | When set to true, returns the ORIGINAL_LONGITUDE and ORIGINAL_LATITUDE values in the candidate's custom output fields. |
Custom Output Fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| ALIASED_SUBURB | New Zealand Aliased suburb. An alternative to the officially-recognized suburb name. |
| KEY_UFI | New Zealand UFI. The Unique Identifier (UFI) identifies the street segment that the geocoded address belongs to. UFIs are up to 7-digit numbers, assigned by New Zealand Post, that uniquely identify each postal delivery point. The UFI is always returned if available, but you cannot use the UFI for input. |
| NZL_MESHBLOCK_ID | New Zealand Meshblock identifier. A Meshblock is the smallest geographic unit for which statistical data is collected by Statistics New Zealand. Meshblocks vary in size from part of a city block to large areas of rural land. |
| ORIGINAL_LATITUDE | The original latitude value. |
| ORIGINAL_LONGITUDE | The original longitude value. |
