Single Line Input

Instead of entering each address element in separate fields, you may enter the entire address in the AddressLine1 input field.

For all countries except Japan, you can enter addresses in one or more of these single-line formats.

Note: Not all formats work may work for every country.

StreetAddress;PostalCode;City

StreetAddress;City;PostalCode

StreetAddress;City

StreetAddress;City;StateProvince;PostalCode

StreetAddress;Locality

StreetAddress;County;City

PostalCode;StreetAddress

PostalCode;StreetAddress;City

City;PostalCode;StreetAddress

Where:

StreetAddress can be house number and street name in either order (with street type immediately before or after the street name).
City is the town.
County is the county or local administrative name. For Chile, Philippines, and Thailand, this is the district.
PostalCode is the complete postcode. For Brazil,

Note: Not all of these address elements are used in every country.

Other single-line formats may also be acceptable for many countries.

The matching accuracy for single line input is comparable to that of structured address input. The performance of single line input addresses may be slightly slower than that of structured address input.

For best results, use delimiters (comma, semicolon, or colon) between each address element. For example,

Camino Nueva La Rural 3905 9200000 Cerrillos

Punctuation is ignored for geocoding purposes.

Guidelines for Single Line Input

Punctuation is generally ignored, however you may improve results and performance by using separators (commas, semicolons, etc.) between different address elements.
The country is not required. Each country geocoder assumes that the address is in its country.
Firm information (placename, building name, or government building) is returned if available.
