Address Matching

Assign GeoTAX Info takes a house address and matches it to the correct street segment. Using the house number, it determines the side of the street on which the house resides (usually based on an odd-even division). Knowing the correct side of the street is important because streets are often the boundaries between municipalities or other adjoining jurisdictions that may have different tax rates. Thus, two addresses on the same street, in the same city, within the same ZIP Code could exist in different jurisdictions and have different tax rates.

After Assign GeoTAX Info identifies the correct street segment, it determines the actual physical location of the house based on known latitudes/longitudes and other geographic data in the street segment database. Assign GeoTAX Info returns the coordinates of the house, along with other data.
