User-Defined Boundary File

The table below lists the output fields that contain data returned from user-defined boundary files. To include this data in the output, click the Output tab, then under Include data, select the User-defined Boundary checkbox.

Note: Assign GeoTAX Info can return up to 10 user-defined areas for each input address.

Field Name	Max. Field Length with null terminator	Description
NumberUserBoundariesFound	3	The number of user-defined polygons found for the address.
UserBoundary`n`.BoundaryDescription	51 per User Boundary	A description of the polygon.
UserBoundary`n`.BoundaryID	11 per User Boundary	The ID of the polygon as specified in the user-defined boundary file.
UserBoundary`n`.BufferRelation	2 per User Boundary	Indicates where in the polygon the address resides in relation to the edge of the area. Buffer width is specified by the option User-defined boundary . One of the following: P The address is inside the polygon at a distance from the edge that is greater than the specified buffer width. I The address is inside the polygon but is close to the edge. B The address is outside the polygon but is close to the edge. For more information, see Buffering.
UserBoundary`n`.DistanceToBorder	10 per User Boundary	Indicates the distance from the address to the border of the polygon. The distance is in the units specified by the option Distance Units .
UserBoundary`n`.SupplementalBoundaryID	11 per User Boundary	A supplemental ID as specified in the user-defined boundary file.
UserBoundary`n`.BoundaryConfidence	4 per User Boundary	Provides the percentage overlap of the geocode to the User-defined boundary polygon layer. The returned percentage value describes the probability that the point falls in the User-defined boundary area.
