Global Address Parser

Global Address Parser splits postal address strings into their constituent elements, such as name of organization, city, locality, district, and post code, using the machine learning techniques. It is a part of the Global Addressing Module.

You can feed data to the Global Address Parser in these two ways:
  • Enter addresses one at a time using the Management Console
  • Import a comma-separated file of addresses arranged in a single column and having a header such as address in the Management Console or alternatively use any data source stage in the Enterprise Designer
This example shows an input address string and the corresponding formatted output:

Input string: "Pitney Bowes Ltd Unit 5 Hatfield Business Park Mosquito Way Hatfield Hertfordshire AL10 9UJ GBR"
