Installing GeoComplete Module Databases

Note: The GeoComplete Module is deprecated as of Spectrum 12.0 SP2. The functionality has been moved to the Global Geocoding Module (GGM).
This module has databases for every country that implements the GeoComplete feature. The countries are provided in the following bundles, but each country is separately licensed.
Table 1. GeoComplete Database Bundles
Bundles Country Databases Included
GeoComplete Americas USA, BRA, CAN, MEX
GeoComplete APAC JPN, SGP
GeoComplete EMEA AND, ARE. AUT, BEL, CHE, CZE, DNK, ESP, FIN, FRA, DEU, GBR, HUN, IRL, ITA, KWT, LIE, LUX, NLD, NOR, POL, PRT, RUS, SVK, SVN, SWE, TUR, ZAF
Note: For each country, street, POI, and user dictionaries (if any) must have unique names and be in the same folder. If a country supports multiple languages, the language-specific dictionaries must also be in the same parent folder.
  1. Download the database from the Pitney Bowes Software eStore using the link provided in the release announcement or welcome email. You can also download the database from the Pitney Bowes technical support web site.
  2. The database is downloaded as a zip file. Unzip the database before proceeding with the installation.
  3. Change the working directory to the bin directory of where Spectrumâ„¢ Technology Platform is installed.
  4. Source the "setup" bourne shell script to setup the environment by typing the following command:
    . ./setup
  5. Execute the dbloader.bin script. Select the databases for each country you wish to install. You can install any database from the bundle, however, you must have a license for every country you wish to use.
  6. Follow the prompts as the script verifies your environment and database location.
    Note: Do not install GeoComplete databases on a network drive. Doing so can cause performance problems.
  7. After you install the database files, use the Database Resource tool in the Management Console to define the database as a resource. For more information, see the Administration Guide.
