Reverse Geocode

Creates addresses from point locations in a feature class. The reverse geocoding process searches for the nearest address or intersection for the point location based on the specified search distance. When using the ArcGIS World Geocoding Service, this operation may consume credits.

1.    Input Features

A point feature class or layer from which addresses are returned based on the features' point location.Input Address Locator

2.    Input Address Locator

The address locator to use to reverse geocode the input feature class.

Locators should be stored in a file folder so you take advantage of new features that are not supported for locators stored in geodatabases, such as performance improvements, multithreading capabilities, and suggestions support. ArcGIS 10.4 is the last release to support storing locators in geodatabases.

3.    Output Feature Class

The output feature class.

4.    Address Type (optional)

Specifies whether to return addresses for the points as street addresses or intersection addresses if the address locator supports intersection matching.

1. ADDRESS—Returns street addresses or in the format defined by the input address locator. This is the default option.
2. INTERSECTION—Returns intersection addresses. This option is available if the address locator supports matching intersection addresses.

5.    Within

The distance used to search for the nearest address or intersection for the point location. Some locators use optimized distance values that do not support overriding the search distance parameter. The default search distance for classic locators is100m.

6.    Feature Type (optional)

Limits the possible match types returned. Single or multiple values can be selected. If a single value is selected, the search tolerance for the input feature type is 500 meters. If multiple values are included, the default search distances are applied.

This parameter is not supported for all locators.

1. POINT_ADDRESS—A street address based on points that represent house and building locations.
2. STREET_ADDRESS—A street address that differs from PointAddress because the house number is interpolated from a range of numbers. StreetAddress matches include the house number range for the matching street segment, rather than the interpolated house number value.
3. STREET_INTERSECTION—A street address consisting of a street intersection along with city and optional state and postal code information. This is derived from StreetAddress reference data, for example, Redlands Blvd & New York St, Redlands, CA, 92373
4. STREET_NAME— A street address similar to Street Address but without house numbers, along with administrative divisions and optional postal code, for example, W Olive Ave, Redlands, CA, 92373.
5. LOCALITY—A place-name representing a populated place.
6. POSTAL—A postal code. Reference data is postal code points, for example, 90210 USA.
7. POINT_OF_INTEREST—Points of interest. Reference data consists of administrative division place-names, businesses, landmarks, and geographic features, for example, Starbucks.
8. DISTANCE_MARKER—A street address that represents the linear distance along a street, typically in kilometers or miles, from a designated origin location, for example, Mile 25 I-5 N, San Diego, CA.

7.    Preferred Location Type (optional)

This parameter is available for locators that support the locationType parameter. It specifies the preferred output geometry for PointAddress matches. The options for this parameter are a side-of-street location that can be used for routing, or the location that represents the rooftop or parcel centroid for the address. If the preferred location does not exist in the data, the default location will be returned instead. For geocode results with Addr_type=PointAddress, the X,Y attribute values describe the coordinates of the address along the street, while the DisplayX and DisplayY values describe the rooftop, or building centroid, coordinates.

This parameter is not supported for all locators

1. ADDRESS_LOCATION—Returns geometry for geocode results that could represent an address location such as rooftop, building centroid, or front door.
2. ROUTING_LOCATION—Returns geometry for geocode results that represent a location close to the side of the street that can be used for vehicle routing. This is the default.

Standardize Addresses

Standardizes the address information in a table or feature class.

Standardizing the address components in your reference data into multiple address fields was a necessary step before building an address locator prior to ArcGIS Desktop 10.0. This step is no longer required because the standardization process occurs when the address locator is built regardless of whether the address components are stored in a single field or split across multiple fields. Standardizing the reference data and normalizing abbreviations and periods are not recommended at ArcGIS Desktop 10.0 and later because they will not improve geocoding performance or quality as this is now done during the geocoding process.

Addresses are often presented in different forms that may contain various abbreviations of words, such as W for WEST or ST for STREET. Based on an address style you select, the address can be split into multiple parts, such as House Number, Prefix Direction, Prefix Type, Street Name Suffix Type, Unit Type, and Unit Number.

The address style specifies the components of an address and determines how the components are ordered and standardized; however, there is no guarantee how the data will be standardized based on the logic in the address locator style and the input data. Depending on the applications, some address styles may expand the value of a word instead of abbreviating it.

The input address you want to standardize can be stored in a single field. If the address information has already been split into multiple fields in the input feature class or table, this tool can concatenate the fields on the fly and standardize the information.

1.    Input Address Data

The table or feature class containing address information that you want to standardize.

2.    Input Address Fields

The set of fields in the input table or feature class that, when concatenated, forms the address to be standardized.

3.    Address Locator Style

The address locator style to use to standardize the address information in the input table or feature class.

4.    Output Address Fields

The set of standardized address fields to include in the output table or feature class.

5.    Output Address Data

The output table or feature class to create containing the standardized address fields.

6.    Dynamic Output Data. (optional)

Indicates whether to create a static or dynamic output dataset.

1. Unchecked—Creates an output table or feature class that contains a copy of the rows or features in the input table and the standardized address fields. This is the default.
2. Checked—Creates a table containing the standardized address fields and a relationship class that joins to the input table or feature class.

The option is only active if both the input and output datasets are stored in the same geodatabase workspace.

This option is available if you have ArcGIS Desktop Standard or Desktop Advanced licenses.
