Global Type Ahead Features

Global Type Ahead provides the following capabilities.

• Select country (optional). See Supported Countries for a list of available countries.
• Single line input search for street addresses
• Specify the number of candidates to display
• Candidates returned in order based on closest match
• Search Points of Interest (POI)
• Search All to include both street addresses and POI
• Fuzzy Match capabilities
  Note: POI and category/subcategory features are accessible only if available and you have licensed and installed POI data.

For both address searches and POI searches, candidates are displayed as you type. As you type more specific information, the results are refined to display more relevant candidates. Candidates include the full address and POI (if the candidate is a Point of Interest).

After installing and deploying Global Type Ahead, you can use the Management Console to explore all the capabilities and see candidate results.

A sample application for Global Type Ahead is available on the Spectrum™ landing page.
