Custom Preferences

USA supports custom preferences and custom output fields.

Additional topics for USA geocoding are included following the custom tables.

Table 1. Custom Preferences
Preference Description
Use Address Point Interpolation When set to true, enables address point interpolation. Default = false. Supported only in forward geocoding.
Note: The address point interpolation feature requires that you have a point-level geocoding dataset installed.
Calculate Centerline Projection of Point Computes the closest point on the street from the parcel point. Default = disabled.
Note: This feature requires that a point-level geocoding dataset is installed.
Use Centerline Offset When set to true, calculates the centerline offset for point addresses. Default = false. Supported only in forward geocoding.
Note: The centerline feature requires that you have a point-level geocoding dataset installed.
A centerline point match is indicated by a result code beginning with SC.
Centerline Offset When Use Centerline Offsetis enabled, this specifies the distance to offset the point from centerline. Default = 0. Supported in forward geocoding only.
Centerline Offset Units When Use Centerline Offset is enabled, this specifies the unit type for the centerline offset. Valid values = feet, meters. Default = meters. Supported only in forward geocoding.

Custom Output Fields

This section lists the unique output fields for USA. Unless otherwise noted, these fields can be returned for both forward and reverse geocoding.

The following categories of output fields are defined:

To include one or more of these categories in the output:

  • In Management Console: Use the Country Filter dropdown menu and select United States. Then, on the Return Values tab, select the desired output category checkboxes.

To return all category output fields:

  • In Management Console: Use the Country Filter dropdown menu and select United States. Then, on the Return Values tab, select the Return all available information checkbox.
