The Data tab allows you to specify which databases to use in geocoding. Databases contain the address and geocode data necessary to determine the geocode for a given address. There are two kinds of databases: standard databases and custom databases. Standard databases are those supplied by Precisely and based on address and geocoding data from postal authorities and suppliers of geographical data. Custom databases are databases you create to enhance or augment standard databases for your particular needs.

Parameter

Description

DatabaseSearchOrder

The name of one or more database resources to use in the search process. Use

the database name specified in the Management Console.

You can specify multiple database resources. If you specify more than one database,

list them in order of preference.

The order of the databases has an effect when there are close match candidates

from different databases. The close matches that are returned come from the

database that is first in the search list. Close matches from lower ranked databases

are demoted to non-close matches.

You can also use the order of the databases to perform fallback processing if you

have an both an address point database and a street-level database installed for

the country. List the address point database first and the street database second.

If the address cannot be geocoded to the address point level, the geocoder will

attempt to geocode it to the street level.

DatabasePreference

Specifies which geocoding databases to use. One of the following:

PreferCustom

Use both standard databases and custom databases, but give preference to candidates from custom databases. Use this option if you feel your custom database is superior to the standard database.

PreferStandard

Use both standard databases and custom databases, but give preference to candidates from standard databases.

CustomOnly

StandardOnly
Use only standard databases. Ignore custom databases.
Both

Dataset

The name of the database resource that contains the data to use in the search process. Use the database name specified in Management Console's Spectrum Databases page.
