International PO Box Geocoding Result Codes (B Codes)

Geocoding AUS data with PO Box or GPO Box as input returns candidates with a new code B1. This means that a match to a post office lookup table was successful. Geocode AUS does not know if the exact PO Box is valid. It returns a post office location with a standardized version of the input PO Box information. The lookup process previously returned a result code of SP. This result code is returned in the additionalFields under the CandidateAddress.LEGACY_RESULT_CODE key.
