The correct level information is returned (when available) even if the input address did not include level information, or if the input had the wrong level information. If the input address has level information but the GNAF database does not include level information for the matching address, then the input level information is discarded since it is not validated in the GNAF data.

SYNTHETIC_LDU SyntheticLDU

The Local Delivery Unit (LDU) is assigned to postal addresses by the Canada Post. If an address has not been assigned an LDU, Precisely has assigned a "Synthetic LDU". Synthetic LDUs are not recognized by Canada Post. However, our methodology for assigning them is geographically congruent with LDUs assigned by Canada Post.

For Geocode and Reverse Geocode candidates, the SYNTHETIC_LDU is only returned for cases when it is true. Autocomplete candidates will return a "t" or an "f" depending on whether the candidate has a SYNTHETIC_LDU or not.

gnaf_reliability A number indicating the geocode precision. Reliability is related to the dictionary used to determine the geocode. Data with geocoded reliability levels 1, 2, and 3 is contained in the GNAF123 Dictionary. This is point (parcel) level geocoded data. Data with geocoded reliability levels 4, 5, and 6 is contained in the GNAF456 Dictionary. This contains non-parcel centroid geocoded data. For example: 2.

  • 4 - Locality level geocode only (no street or parcel level geocode).
  • 5 - Locality and parcel level geocodes (no street level geocode).
  • 6 - Locality and street level geocodes (no parcel level geocodes).
  • 7 - Locality, street and parcel level geocodes.

  • PP - Principal primary address record
  • PS - Principal secondary address record
  • AP - Alias primary address record
  • AS - Alias secondary address record
MAIN_ADDRESS The main address line. Example value: WELLESLEY
GNAF_PID The G-NAF Persistent Identifier (G-NAF PID) is a 14-character alphanumeric string that uniquely identifies each G-NAF address. The PID is constructed from a combination of the major address fields of the G-NAF database. An example of a G-NAF PID is: GANSW705712398.

MESH_BLOCK_ID A Meshblock is the smallest geographic unit for which statistical data is collected by the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS). Meshblocks usually contain a minimum of 20 to 50 households. This is about one fifth the size of a Collection District (CD). You can use the Meshblock ID to do additional attributions against your own data. Example value: 10423770000
GNAF_PARCEL_ID The Parcel ID field is the generic parcel id field provided by custodial data, and represents a Lot on Plan description that is useful for government agencies. The exact format varies. G-NAF source data has over 7 million records with a Parcel_ID. The Australia geocoder supplements this to populate over 12,730,000 G-NAF records with a Parcel_ID field. Example value: 4/14093.
GNAF_SA1 The Statistical Area Level 1 (SA1) field as the second smallest geographic area defined in the Australian Statistical Geography Standard (ASGS). Mesh Block is the smallest unit. The SA1 is designed for use in the Census of Population and Housing as the smallest unit for the processing and release of Census data. An SA1 is represented by a unique seven digit code. Example value: 12103140937

GEOFEATURE The physical or virtual reference of the geocode. Physical features associated with the address point may include mailbox, driveway, water meter, building. Virtual features are mathematically- or geometrically-derived spatial-reference points such as the centroid of a lot or property. Example Value: PRECISELY FRONTAGE CTR SETBACK.
