Enterprise Geocoding Module

Installing New Data Format for SPD International Data

Spectrum currently supports a data installation process for international data that has been simplified and allows the same datasets to be used in multiple modules. See Data Installation Process for SPD International Data for more information.

EGM Database memory usage

When using Java 1.8, some countries can produce runtime geocoding exceptions. The solution is to increase the memory available to the Enterprise Geocoding Module. To do this, adjust the –Xmx parameter in the java.vmargs file to a larger value. For example, setting the value of –Xmx to 2048m should be sufficient. The location of the Enterprise Geocoding Module java.vmargs file is Pitney Bowes\Spectrum\server\modules\igeocode-global\. In the java.vmargs file, append this: -Xmx2048m -Djava.util.Arrays.useLegacyMergeSort=true

For minimum and recommended system requirments see System Requirements for Enterprise Geocoding and Global Geocoding modules.
